10 x 62 is the equation for this problem because every row has 62 and there are 10 rows.
Gallons per day.......gallons / day.....so u put the gallons over the number of days, then divide
(1/2) / 6 = 1/2 * 1/6 = 1/12 of a gallon per day <==
Answer:
53 teachers
Step-by-step explanation:
Basically, what we need to do here is to find how many teachers there need to be, first. If there are 6,734 students in the school district and if maximum class size is 25, then the number of teachers needed is:
6,734 / 25 = 269.36
Of course, it's obvious that we can't have a decimal number of teachers, so we need to find integer (269 or 270).
If we take 269 teachers and 25 students per class, we get:
269 • 25 = 6,725 students, which is not enough, since there are 6,734 students.
That means that the number of teachers needed is 270.
It is given that there are already 217 teachers, meaning that 270-217=53 teachers have to be supplemented.
To get the points at which the two boats meet we need to find the equations that model their movement:
Boat A:
vertex form of the equation is given by:
f(x)=a(x-h)^2+k
where:
(h,k) is the vertex, thus plugging our values we shall have:
f(x)=a(x-0)^2+5
f(x)=ax^2+5
when x=-10, y=0 thus
0=100a+5
a=-1/20
thus the equation is:
f(x)=-1/20x^2+5
Boat B
slope=(4-0)/(10+10)=4/20=1/5
thus the equation is:
1/5(x-10)=y-4
y=1/5x+2
thus the points where they met will be at:
1/5x+2=-1/20x^2+5
solving for x we get:
x=-10 or x=6
when x=-10, y=0
when x=6, y=3.2
Answer is (6,3.2)
