Answer: the number of students in each van is 11

the number of students in each bus is 36

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of students in each van.

Let y represent the number of students in each bus.

Group a filled 2 vans and 5 buses with 202 students. This means that

2x + 5y = 202 - - - - - - - - -1

Group b filled 10 vans and 13 buses with 578 students. This means that

10x + 13y = 578 - - - - - - - - - - 2

Multiplying equation 1 by 10 and equation 2 by 2, it becomes

20x + 50y = 2020

20x + 26y = 1156

Subtracting

24y = 864

y = 864/24 = 36

Substituting y = 36 into equation 1, it becomes

2x + 5×36 = 202

2x + 180 = 202

2x = 202 - 180 = 22

x = 22/2 = 11

Kelly blends coffee. She mixes brand A costing $6 per kilogram with brand B costing $8 per kilogram. How many kilograms of each
sukhopar [10]

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x

be the kg of coffee of brand A in the mix and

y

be the kg of coffee of brand B in the mix.

The total kg must be

50

.

x

+

y

=

50

The cost per kg of the mix must br

$

7.20

. For this, the total cost of the mix will be

6

x

+

8

y

, so the total cost per kg of the mix will be

6

x

+

8

y

50

.

6

x

+

8

y

50

=

7.20

Now that we have our two equations, we can solve.

6

x

+

8

y

=

7.20

⋅

50

6

x

+

8

y

=

360

From the first equation, we can multiply both sides by

6

to get:

6

x

+

6

y

=

300

Subtracting, we get:

2

y

=

60

y

=

30

Thus, we need

30

kg of brand B in our mix. This means that

50

−

30

=

20

kg will be of brand A.
