Answer:
Some distractions could be the lack of authority. On my computer certain things are blocked because of my parents but if you have full rein to apps you could be often distracted by games other than school work. Another thing that can distract you as an online student could be siblings. When I was in public school with my twin brother it was difficult trying not to punch him in the face, but we were in public so I had to hold back... If you have a sibling or multiple that are younger than you or just annoying it can be a common distraction.. and last stratigies I can use to avoid these distractions would be to set guidelines for you and your siblings.. this is something I haven't tried because my brother is still doing public school.. but when I am trying to do work and he happens to be at home making noise... I will tell him to just shut up or I could lock him in the basement easy fix.( jk )With the whole multiple apps and being able to use social media and games during school can easily be fixed by blocking certain apps..... I don't like it but oh well... here we are.!!
Answer:
3 groups of 5
Explanation:
if x is the number of groups of four, and y is the number of groups of five, then 4x +5y =39 (four students per group of four times the # of groups of four, and 5 students per group times the # of groups of five, which should equal the total amount of students, 39). also, x+y=9. (number of each type of group = 9 groups total).
then, use these two equations and solve for y, by "canceling out" x. there are many ways to do this, but i'm going to use subtraction.
4x-5y=39
x+y=9
you want to change the equation
x+y=9
into
4x+4y=36
by multiplying the whole equation by four. because in order to cancel out the x, you need it to equal zero. in the first equation, its 4x.
so its now
4x-5y =39 MINUS
4x+4y=36
___________
y=3
you can check your work because the remaining 6 groups of four (24 total students) plus the 3 groups of five (15 total students) adds up to equal 36
