You first multiply 6 and 8 to see how many people are put in the vans without rented a van. This would equal 48. You then subtract 48 from 59 to see how many people still need to be in a van. This would leave you with 11 people. Then you divide 8 from 11 to get 1 3/8. This means you need 2 vans to fit everyone.
The first part of the question is not needed
we only need to know M1 and M2
(y2-y1)^2+(x2-x1)^2=(your answer)^2
(5-16)^2+(-3-2)^2=(your answer)^2
(-11)^2+(-5)^2=(your answer)^2
121+25=(your answer)^2
146=(your answer)^2
√146=12.0830459735945721
nearest tenth=12.1
Answer:
You would want to divide 6 by 2, getting x=3.
