2x-6=52 x= alternative schools
2x=58
x=29
There are 29 alternative schools in the county.
X=Juliana's age
r=Rich's age
(x+2)+(x*3)+5=R
You can solve it from there
Answer:
133 Students
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of student in a van=v
Let the number of student in a bus=b
The senior class at Snellville rented and filled 12 vans and 14 buses with 796 students.
Therefore: 12v+14b=796
General High rented and filled 14 vans and 12 buses with 738 students.
Therefore: 14v+12b=738
We solve the two resulting equations simultaneously
12v+14b=796
14v+12b=738
<u>Multiply equation 1 by 12 and equation 2 by 14 to eliminate b</u>
144v+168b=9552
196v+168b=10332
Subtract
-52v=-780
Divide both sides by -52
v=15
We substitute v=15 to obtain b in any of the equations
12v+14b=796
12(15)+14b=796
14b=796-180
14b=616
Divide both sides by 14
b=44
Therefore a bus contains 44 Students and a Van contains 15 students.
Number of Students who would fill 2 buses and 3 vans
=2b+3v
=2(44)+3(15)
=133 Students
