8v + 9b = 228
4v + 5b = 124....multiply by -2
------------------
8v + 9b = 228
-8v - 10b = - 248 (result of multiplying by -2)
----------------add
-b = - 20
b = 20 <=== each bus holds 20 students

4v + 5b = 124
4v + 5(20) = 124
4v + 100 = 124
4v = 124 - 100
4v = 24
v = 24/4
v = 6 <=== each van holds 6 students

Alenkasestr [34]

Answer:

a. Since 10 out of 70 had a tag we can write the ratio 10:70. We need to solve for x in 90:x. x = 630 so the answer is 630.

b. An assumption he could have made is that the number of deer that had a tag and the total amount of deer were directly proportional.

Jody bought 20 shares of amazon at the close price of $121.00. She bought 20 more shares a year later at the price of $127.00. T
hjlf

Answer:

Jody made $210 after all of these transactions.

Step-by-step explanation:

Jody bought 20 shares of amazon at the price of $121.00

= 121.00 × 20 = $2,420

After one year she bought 20 more shares at the price of $127.00

= 127.00 × 20 = $2,540

Her broker charges $50.00 for each transaction = 50 × 2 = $100

Total cost of all shares = 2,420 + 2,540 + 100 = $5,060

She sold all of her shares at the price of $133.00

= 133 × 40 = $5,320

She gave broker charge for this transaction = $50.00

Total selling amount  = 5,320 - 50 = $5,270

Profit = Selling amount - cost

Profit = 5,270 - 5,060 = $210

Jody made $210 after all of these transactions.
