Answer 1

Answer:

There are 24 students and teachers that rode in vans, and there are 385 students and teachers that rode in buses.

Step-by-step explanation:

First we are going to set up a system of equations where:

b= number of buses

v= number of vans

We know from the equation that each bus transported 55 people and that each van transported 12 people and that there was a total of 409 people transported. We also know that the number of buses was 5 more than the number of vans.

Knowing that we can set up our system:

[tex]\left \{ {{55b+12v=409} \atop {b=v+5\\}} \right.[/tex]

Since we know what b is equal to, we can now use the substitution method to plug the value of b from the bottom equation into the one on the top and solve for variable v.

55(v +5)+12v =409

From there we can distribute 55 into (v+5)

55v +275+12v =409

We can now combine like terms.

67v +275 = 409

From there we subtract 275 from both sides of the equation to isolate the variable.

67v +275 = 409

      -275    -275


After doing this, we now divide both sides of the equation by 67 to solve for v.

[tex]\frac{67v}{67} =\frac{134}{67}[/tex]

We now know that v, the number of vans is 2 and can plug that into our bottom equation from our system of equations ([tex]b=v+5[/tex]).

[tex]b=2+5\\b=7[/tex]

Knowing that there are 7 buses and 2 vans, we can now plug these numbers into the terms in the top equation of our system. 55b and 12v.

[tex]55(7)=385[/tex]

[tex]12(2)= 24\\[/tex]

385 people rode buses. 24 people rode vans

Check your equation

409 people went in total. 385 + 24 = 409.

simplify 2(-n-3)-7(5+2n)

Answers

Answer:

-16n - 41

Step-by-step explanation:

To simplify the equation, you need to get rid of the parentheses by multiplying the numbers outside the parentheses to the numbers inside. Then, you can combine the similar terms.

2(-n - 3) - 7(5 + 2n)                         <---- Original equation

-2n - 6 - 7(5 + 2n)                           <---- Expand first parentheses by mult.

-2n - 6 - 35 - 14n                            <---- Expand second parentheses by mult.

What is the least positive integer by which 24 should be divided so that the resulting integer is a perfect square?

In a perfect square, all the prime factors occur in pairs.


In 2 × 2 × 2 × 3, 2 occurs in a pair, and only one each of 2 and 3 remains unpaired.

The number of hours of TV watched each week by 8 seventh grade students is shown below.
11, 7, 9, 3, 3, 8, 10, 5











a. What is the mean number of hours of TV watching?


b. Mean absolute deviation =


c. Explain the meaning of the mean absolute deviation as it relates to the number of hours of TV watched.

Answers

Answer:

a) 7 hours ; b) 2.5 hours ; c) look at explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

a)

The mean of a data set is what we usually refer to as the average. To find the mean, you add up all of the values and divide by the number of values.

So, to find the mean, you need to add all of the values (the "value" is the the number hours each student watched)

11 + 7 + 9 + 3 + 3 + 8 + 10 + 5

= 56

You have 8 seventh-grade students, so your number of values is 8.

Dividing the sum of the values by the number of values would then be:

56 / 8

= 7

So, your mean is 7.

---------------------------------------

b)

(A deviation is how much a value differs from a certain value. If a person was supposed to be 5 feet tall, and they were 6 feet tall, they would deviate 1 foot from the value of 5. If the person was 4 feet tall, they would also have a deviation of 1 foot.)

The mean absolute deviation is complicated. You probably want to set up two columns (or at least this is how I was taught to do it), the first column being the value (represented by x in the mean absolute deviation formula), the second column being the difference between the mean of the data set and the value (the mean is represented as x with a line over it).

∑ is the sum of the values of the second column.

To find the mean (remember, mean = average) of the deviations, you are going to add all of the deviations together, and divide by your number of values.

I'll write out the second column (the difference from mean) below:

| x - [tex]\frac{}{x}[/tex] |

4

0

2

4

4

1

3

2

if you add all of these values up, you will get 20; ∑ = 20

[  | | means absolute value--essentially the distance of the value from 0, so a negative number is written as a positive numbers; |-3| = 3 ; |3| = 3 ]

Now you will find the mean of your deviations. The sum of all deviations (∑) = 20. The number of deviations/the number of values is 8.

So, the equation of 20 / 8 will give us the absolute mean deviation.

20/8 = Mean Absolute Deviation

Mean Absolute Deviation = 2.5

Your Mean Absolute Deviation is 2.5 [hours] .

------------------------------------------------

c)

Now you are being asked to interpret what this 2.5 indicates. It means that each student has, on average, a difference of 2.5 hours of TV watched from the mean. The Mean Absolute Deviation gives us a sense of how spread out the values of a data set are. We know that a mean absolute deviation of 0 would indicate that all values of the set are exactly identical. A mean deviation of 100 would indicate that all of the values are drastically different. So, a mean deviation of 2.5 indicates that all of the values (each student's watch hours) are fairly similar.

a) 7 hours ; b) 2.5 hours; c) look at explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
a)
The mean of a data set is what we usually refer
to as the average. To find the mean, you add
up all of the values and divide by the number of
values.
So, to find the mean, you need to add all of the
values (the "value" is the the number hours
each student watched)
11+7+9+3+3+8+10 + 5
= 56
You have 8 seventh-grade students, so your
number of values is 8.
Dividing the sum of the values by the number
of values would then be:
56 / 8
=7
So, your mean is 7.

Answers

Let

Eq1 : x - 2y = 12

Eq2 : 4x + 2y = 16

For substitution, we need to rearrange on of the equations so that we can substitute it in the other. Let's pick eq2 and rewrite it as 2y = 16 - 4x. We see that eq1 also has 2y in it, so we can plug this new version of eq2 in there.

3x - (16-4x) = 12

Now solve for x.

Plug that into either equation to solve for y. You get y=0.

3a: complete the table with values for x and y that makes this equation true 3x+y=15


3b: create a graph, plot these points, and find the slope of the line that goes through them.

Answers

Answer:

  a. see the attachment for the table (also reproduced below)

  b. slope = -3; see the attachment for a graph

Step-by-step explanation:

A table of values for the function can be filled a couple of ways. One way is to draw the graph of the equation, and read the point values from it. Another way is to solve for each of the variables, and use those equations to find the missing table values.

__

a.

Solving the equation for y, we get ...

  3x +y = 15

  y = -3x +15 . . . . . . subtract 3x; this is "point-slope form"

For the purpose of evaluating for different values of x, we can rearrange this a bit to ...

  y = 3(5 -x) . . . . factor out 3

The given table has x-values of 0, 2, 3, 6. The corresponding y-values are ...

  y = 3(5 -{0, 2, 3, 6}) = 3{5, 3, 2, -1} = {15, 9, 6, -3} . . . . for x={0, 2, 3, 6}

Solving the equation for x, we get ...

  y/3 = 5 -x . . . . . divide the above equation by 3

  x = 5 -(y/3) . . . . . add x-(y/3)

For y-values {0, 3, 8}, the corresponding x-values are ...

  x = 5 -{0, 3, 8}/3 = 5 -{0, 1, 8/3} = {5, 4, 7/3} . . . . for y={0, 3, 8}

Then our table of values is ...

  [tex]\begin{array}{|c|c|c|c|c|c|c|c|}\cline{1-8}x&2&4&6&0&3&5&7/3\\y&9&3&-3&15&6&0&8\\\cline{1-8}\end{array}[/tex]

__

b.

The points in the above table can be plotted, and the line drawn through them. Sometimes using the points that are farthest apart makes this easier: (0, 15) and (6, -3).

slope

When we solved for y, we had the equation in slope-intercept form. The slope is the x-coefficient in that equation:

  y = -3x +15   ⇒   slope = -3
