Question

Please need help on this

Answer 1

a. 276 vehicles

Explanation:

7⁄10[13½] + 3⁄10[20] + 3v - 3 = [4][5280]

`(10323)/(( (7)/(10))(13 (1)/(2)) + ( (3)/(10))(20) + 3) = v \\ \\ (10323)/(9 (9)/(20) + 6 + 3) = v \\ \\ (10323)/(9 (9)/(20) + </strong><strong>9</strong><strong>) = v \\ \\ (10323)/(</strong><strong>18</strong><strong> (9)/(20)) = v \\ \\ 559 (21)/(41) = v`

Now, we check to see which answer choice this quantity is closer to. Obviously, we will take 896 and 276:

-559 21⁄41 + 896 = 336 20⁄41

559 21⁄41 - 276 = 28221⁄41 → we take this number

* 559 21⁄41 is much more closer to 276 than it is to 896.
