b = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
See photo attached. (:
Step-by-step explanation:
The system of equations for eq 1 which is 3x + y = 118 represents the Green High School which filled three buses(with a specific number of students identified as x) and a van(with a specific number of students identified as y) with a total of 118 students.
for eq 2; 4x + 2y = 164; represents Belle High School which filled four buses(with a specific number of students identified as x) and two vans(with a specific number of students identified as y) with a total of 164 students.
The solution represents the specific number of students in the buses and vans in eq1 and eq 2 with x being 36 students and y being 10 students.
substituting 36 for x and 10 for y in eq 1;
3(36) + 10 = 108 + 10 = 118 total students for Green High School
substituting 36 for x and 10 for y in eq2;
4(36) + 2(10) = 144 + 20 = 164 total students for Belle High school
(a)

= 400
(b)


(c) Only the positive solution makes sense because you cannot have a negative side length.
(d) Since one side of the painting is 20 inches, all four sides together will be 20*4 = 80 inches
The least common multiple of 3 and 8 is 24.
The least common multiple of two numbers is the lowest value number that is a multiple of both the numbers. To find the least common multiple of 3 and 8, you first list their multiples:
Multiples of 3: 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, 21, 24...
Multiples of 8: 8, 16, 24, 32, 40, 48, 56...
When you compare the two lists of multiples, you can see that the number 24 is the lowest number that is a multiple of both 3 and 8, so it is their LCM, or least common multiple.
