- Make an equation representing the number of vehicles needed.
We have six drivers so
x + y ≤ 6
That's not really an equation; it's an inequality. We want to use all our drivers so we can use the small vans, so
x + y = 6
- Make an equation representing the total number of seats in vehicles for the orchestra members.
s = 25x + 12y
That's how many seats total; it has to be at least 111 so again an inequality,
25x + 12y ≥ 111
We solve it like a system of equations.
x + y = 6
y = 6 - x
111 = 25x + 12y = 25x + 12(6-x)
111 = 25x + 72 - 12x
111 - 72 = 13 x
39 = 13 x
x = 3
Look at that, it worked out exactly. It didn't have to.
y = 6 - x = 3
Answer: 3 buses, 3 vans
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the equation as

apply multiplication property of equality where you multiply every term by 5

3x-15=60------------------apply addition property of equality
3x-15+15=60+15
3x=75--------------------------appy division property of equality by dividing both sides by 3
3x/3=75/3
x=25
The area of the trapezoid can be calculated through the equation,
A = (b₁ + b₂)h / 2
where b₁ and b₂ are the bases and h is the height. Substituting the known values from the given,
A = (25mm + 32mm)(15 mm) / 2
A = 427.5 mm²
Since there are two trapezoids in the necklace, the area calculated is to be multiplied by two to get the total area.
total area = (427.5 mm²)(2)
<em>total area = 855 mm²</em>
Answer:
6.33... and 0.333...
Step-by-step explanation:
The quadratic formula is
.
It is important because while some quadratics are factorable and can be solved not all are. The formula will solve all quadratic equations and can also give both real and imaginary solutions. Using the formula will require less work than finding the factors if factorable. We will substitute a=9, b=-54 and c=-19.

We will now solve for the plus and the minus.
The plus,,,
and the minus...
