A bus holds 45 students. How many buses were taken on a field trip if 13 students travels by car andA bus holds 45 students. How many buses were taken on a field trip if 13 students travels by car and total of 320 students went on a trip?
[U]Find the number of students who went on the bus:[/U]
Number of students who went on the bus = Total students on field trip - students who traveled by car
Number of students who went on the bus = 320 - 13
Number of students who went on the bus = 307
Calculate the number of buses needed:
Number of buses needed = Number of students who went on the bus / Bus Capacity
Number of buses needed = 307 / 45
Number of buses needed = 6.822
We round up for a full bus to get [B]7 buses[/B]

A gas tank contains 5.3 gallons. The capacity of the tank is 12.5 gallons. How much will it cost toA gas tank contains 5.3 gallons. The capacity of the tank is 12.5 gallons. How much will it cost to fill the tank at $1.30 per gallon.
[U]Calculate the empty portion of the gas tank:[/U]
Empty portion = Capacity - Gas gallons remaining
Empty portion = 12.5 - 5.3
Empty portion (in gallons) = 7.2
[U]Calculate the cost to fill the tank:[/U]
Cost to fill the tank = Empty portion (in gallons) * cost per gallon
Cost to fill the tank = 7.2 * $1.30
Cost to fill the tank = [B]$9.36[/B]
A movie theater has a seating capacity of 143. The theater charges $5.00 for children, $7.00 for stuA movie theater has a seating capacity of 143. The theater charges $5.00 for children, $7.00 for students, and $12.00 of adults. There are half as many adults as there are children. If the total ticket sales was $ 1030, How many children, students, and adults attended?
Let c be the number of children's tickets, s be the number of student's tickets, and a be the number of adult's tickets. We have 3 equations:
[LIST=1]
[*]a + c + s = 143
[*]a = 0.5c
[*]12a + 5c + 7s =1030
[/LIST]
Substitute (2) into (1)
0.5c + c + s = 143
1.5c + s = 143
Subtract 1.5c from each side
4. s = 143 - 1.5c
Now, take (4) and (2), and plug it into (3)
12(0.5c) + 5c + 7(143 - 1.5c) = 1030
6c + 5c + 1001 - 10.5c = 1030
Combine like terms:
0.5c + 1001 = 1030
Use our [URL='http://www.mathcelebrity.com/1unk.php?num=0.5c%2B1001%3D1030&pl=Solve']equation calculator[/URL] to get [B]c = 58[/B].
Plug this back into (2)
a = 0.5(58)
[B]a = 29
[/B]
Now take the a and c values, and plug it into (1)
29 + 58 + s = 143
s + 87 = 143
Using our [URL='http://www.mathcelebrity.com/1unk.php?num=s%2B87%3D143&pl=Solve']equation calculator[/URL] again, we get [B]s = 56[/B].
To summarize, we have:
[LIST]
[*]29 adults
[*]58 children
[*]56 students
[/LIST]
A school bus can safely carry as many as 76 students. If 19 students are already on the bus, how manA school bus can safely carry as many as 76 students. If 19 students are already on the bus, how many more can board the bus?
Remaining boarders = total capacity - students on the bus
Remaining boarders = 76 - 19
Remaining boarders = [B]57[/B]
A theater is 3/4 full. When 96 people leave, the theater is only 35% full. How many seat are thereA theater is 3/4 full. When 96 people leave, the theater is only 35% full. How many seats are there?
Let the full capacity of seats in the theater be s. We're given:
3/4s - 96 = 0.35s (Since 35% is 0.35)
We also know that 3/4 = 0.75, so let's use this to have decimals:
0.75s - 96 = 0.35s
To solve for s, we [URL='https://www.mathcelebrity.com/1unk.php?num=0.75s-96%3D0.35s&pl=Solve']type this equation into our search engine[/URL] and we get:
s = [B]240[/B]

In a hurricane the wind pressure varies directly as the square of the wind velocity. If a wind presIn a hurricane the wind pressure varies directly as the square of the wind velocity. If a wind pressure is a measure of a hurricane's destruction capacity, what happens to this destructive power when the wind speed doubles?
Let P = pressure and v = velocity (wind speed)
We are given p = v^2
Double velocity, so we have a new pressure P2:
P2 = (2v)^2
P2 = 4v^2
Compare the 2:
p = v^2
p = 4v^2
Doubling the wind speed [B]quadruples, or 4 times[/B] the pressure.
