Answer:
1/50 < 2.8% < 0.044 < 7/40
Step-by-step explanation:
2.8%, 7/40, 1/50, 0.044
- 2.8% = 0.028 = 28/1000
- 7/40 = 0.175 = 175/1000
- 1/50 = 0.020 = 20/1000
- 0.044 = 44/1000
<u>Ordering in ascending order</u>
- 20/1000 < 28/1000 < 44/1000 < 175/1000
<u>Same order in original numbers</u>
- 1/50 < 2.8% < 0.044 < 7/40
Answer:120
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the school hire x buses and y vans.
A bus can hold 40 students and 3 teachers.
A van can hold 8 students and 1 teacher.
The number of students riding in buses and vans is at least 400, therefore
40x + 8y ≥ 400 (1)
The number of teachers riding in buses and vans is at most 36, therefore
3x + y ≤ 36 (2)
Write (1) and (2) as
y ≥ 50 - 5x (3)
y ≤ 36 - 3x (4)
The equality portion of the solution of (3) and (4) is
36 - 3x = 50 - 5x
2x = 14
x = 7 => y = 36 - 3*7 = 15
A graph of the inequalities indicates the acceptable solution in shaded color, as shown below.
The minimum cost of renting buses and vans is
7*$1200 + 15*$100 = $9900
Answer: The minimum cost is $9,900
