the water park is a popular field trip destination. This year the senior class at High School A and the senior class at High School B both planned trips
there. The senior class at High School A rented and filled 10 vans and 8 buses with 472 students. High School B rented and filled 9 vans and 8 buses
with 456 students. Every van had the same number of students in it as did the buses. Find the number of students in each van and in each bus.
Sort the steps in order to solve this system of equations.
Answers
Answer:
The sorted steps are;
1) Write the equations: 10·x + 8·y = 472 and 9·x + 8·y = 456
2) Multiply to get one variable to eliminate: -90·x - 72·y = -4248 and 90·x + 80·y = 4560
3) Eliminate x's: 8·y = 312
4) Solve for y: y = 39 (39 buses)
5)Plug back in to find x: 10·x + 8·(39) = 472
6) Solve for x: x = 16 (16 vans)
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x = The number of students in each van and y = The number of students in each bus
We have;
For High School A;
10·x + 8·y = 472...(1)
For High School B;
9·x + 8·y = 456...(2)
Multiply equation (1) by (-9) and equation (2) by 10 to get
(10·x + 8·y) × (-9) = 472 × (-9)
-90·x -72·y = -4,248...(3)
9·x + 8·y × (10)= 456 × (10)
90·x + 80·y = 4,560...(4)
Add equation (3) to (4) gives;
-90·x -72·y + 90·x + 80·y = -4,248 + 4,560
90·x - 90·x -72·y + 80·y = -4,248 + 4,560
8·y = 312
y = 312/8 = 39
y = 39
Substituting the value of y in equation (1), gives;
10·x + 8·y = 10·x + 8 × 39 = 472
10·x + 312 = 472
10·x = 472 - 312 = 160
10·x = 160
x = 160/10 = 16
x = 16
The number of students in each van = x = 16 students
The number of students in each bus = y = 39 students.

Michael worked 42 hours last week. His regular pay is $10.00 per hour. He is paid 1 1/2 times his regular pay for overtime hours (in excess of 40 hours). What was his gross pay?
Answers
Answer:
$430
Step-by-step explanation:
Total hours worked by Michael = 42 hours
hours worked by Michael in excess of 40 hour = 42 - 40 = 2 hour
thus,
Michael worked 2 hours overtime.
money paid for working 1 hour in regular pay = $10.00
money paid for working 40 hour in regular pay = $10.00*40 = $400
lets calculate money paid to him for over time
given
Michael is paid 1 1/2 times his regular pay for overtime hours
Money paid for overtime for 1 hour = 1 1/2 *money paid for working 1 hour in regular pay
Money paid for overtime for 1 hour = 3/2 *$10 = $15
Money paid for 2 hours work overtime = $15*2 = $30
Thus,
gross pay for 42 hours work for Michael = $400 + $30 = $430
Suppose there is a 1.7f drop in temperature for every thousand feet that an airplane climbs into the sky. If the temperature on the ground is 49.9f what will be the temperature when the plane reaches am altitude of 4,000ft?? The temperature will be_____F (type an integer or a decimal)
Answers
Answer:
[tex]43.1 ^{\circ}F[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Give that for every 1000 feet increase in the height there is a drop of [tex]1.7 ^{\circ}F[/tex] in temperature.
So, the rate of temperature drop with respect to height, R = 1.7/1000 [tex]^{\circ}F/\text{ft}[/tex].
If the change in height is [tex]\Deltah[/tex][tex]\Delta h[/tex] feet, the temperature drop,
[tex]\Delta T= \Delta h R \;^{\circ}F\cdots(i)[/tex]
The temperature on the ground is 49.9 [tex]^{\circ}F[/tex].
At the ground, the height is 0, so the change in height, \Delta h when the plane reaches an altitude of 4,000 feet, is
\Delta h =4000-0=4000 feet
Now, from equation (i), the temperature drop
[tex]\Delta T= 4000 \times \frac {1.7}{1000}=6.8\;^{\circ}F.[/tex]
Hence, the temperature at an altitude of 4000 feet [tex]= 49.9-6.8=43.1 \;^{\circ}F[/tex].
Jenna's brother borrowed $200 from her to buy a tablet. She will charge him 3% simple interest. Her brother says he will pay her back in 6 months. What is the total amount he will pay back?
Answers
Answer:
personally I believe its 6..
Step-by-step explanation:
10% of 200 is 20. if 10% is 20 then each part would equal 2. 2×3 is equal to 6
Answer:
$203
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the cost he pays back you need to mulitply 200 x 3% x 6 months.
Because you can't multiply with different units, you convert them to the same unit. (Numeric form)
To convert, we divide 3% by 100 and get 0.03
6 MONTHs is equal to 1/2 of a year which is also 0.5.
Now that all of our numbers are using the same units, we can multiply.
200(0.03)(0.5)
200 x 0.03 is 6
6 x 0.5 is 3.
We need to add the total amount her brother pays her back and the interest.
He pays her $200 for the Tablet and gives her $3 for the interest.
200+3=203.

Given:
A number line going from negative 2.5 to positive 2.5 in increments of 0.5.
To find:
The inequality which is true.
Solution:
Consider the number line as shown in the below figure.
We know that, on a line as we go to the left direction, the number become smaller and as we go right, the numbers become larger.
From the number line it is clear that -1.5 is on the left side of 0.5. So,
[tex]-1.5<0.5[/tex]
Hence, option A is incorrect.
-0.5 is on the left side of 0. So,
[tex]-0.5<0[/tex]
Hence, option B is incorrect.
-1.5 is on the left side of -0.5. So,
[tex]-1.5<-0.5[/tex]
Hence, option C is correct.
One half is equal to 0.5.
[tex]\dfrac{1}{2}=0.5[/tex]
Hence, option D is incorrect.

Sample Response: To write a two-variable equation, I would first need to know how much Maya’s allowance was. Then, I would need the cost of playing the arcade game and of riding the Ferris wheel. I could let the equation be cost of playing the arcade games plus cost of riding the Ferris wheel equals the total allowance. My variables would represent the number of times Maya played the arcade game and the number of times she rode the Ferris wheel. With this equation I could solve for how many times she rode the Ferris wheel given the number of times she played the arcade game.

Cape Corp. Will pay a dividend of $4.40 next year. The company has stated that it will maintain a constant growth rate of 5 percent a year forever. a. If you want a return of 17 percent, how much will you pay for the stock? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal places, e.G., 32.16.) b. If you want a return of 10 percent, how much will you pay for the stock? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal places, e.G., 32.16.)
Answers
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
a. If you want a return of 17 percent, how much will you pay for the stock?
The price of the stock can be calculated as:
= dividend next year/(required return - growth rate)
= 4.4/(17% - 5%)
= 4.4/12%
= 4.4/0.12
= 36.67
b. If you want a return of 10 percent, how much will you pay for the stock?
At 10%
= 4.4/(10% - 5%)
= 4.4/5%
= 4.4/0.05
= 88

Answers
Answer:
$4,225.6
Step-by-step explanation:
Jenifer had the following deductions from her monthly pay
Federal income tax of $87
State income tax of 2.5% of gross pay
City income tax of 1.2% of gross pay
Jennifer monthly pay is $3,982.22
Therefore jenifer monthly gross pay can be calculated as follows
Let x represent the gross pay
x = 3982.22 + 87 + 1.2/100x + 2.5/100x
x = 3982.22 + 87 + 0.012x + 0.025x
x =4069.22 + 0.037x
Collect the like terms
x - 0.037x = 4069.22
0.963x = 4069.22
Divide both sides by the coefficient of x
x = 4069.22/0.963
x = 4,225.6
Hence Jennifer monthly gross pay is $4,225.6
