Question

more than 450 students traveled to a state park for a field trip. the school allowed 6 students to travel by car, and the rest traveled on 11 buses, each of which held the same number of students. if there were s students in each bus, which inequality best represents this situation? choose 1 answer: a 11s + 6 > 450 b 11s + 6 < 450 c 6s + 11 > 450 d 6s + 11 < 450

Explanation:

Step1: Determine total number of students

The number of students traveling by car is 6, and the number of students traveling by bus is 11s (since there are 11 buses with s students in each). So the total number of students is \(11s + 6\).

Step2: Set up the inequality

We know that more than 450 students traveled. So the inequality is \(11s+6>450\).

Answer:

A. \(11s + 6>450\)
