Answer:

Kindly check explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following :

Let x = cost of a loaf of bread ; y = cost of an egg

Dwayne :

1 loaf of bread and 6 eggs :

X + 6y = 4.45 - - - (1)

Sheila :

X + 12y = 5.65 - - - (2)

From (1);

X = 4.45 - 6y

In (2):

(4.45 - 6y) + 12y = 5.65

4.45 + 6y = 5.65

6y = 5.65 - 4.45

6y = 1.2

y = 0.2

From X = 4.45 - 6y:

X = 4.45 - 6(0.2)

X = 4.45 - 1.2

X = 3.25

Cost of a loaf of bread = $3.25

Coat of an egg = $0.2

a company uses two vans to transport workers from a free parking lot to the work place between 7:00 and 9:00 am one van has 6 mo
k0ka [10]
So first, I would assign the small van a variable for how many people it can hold, or x.

So since it makes two trips,

2x

And since the other van can hold six more people,

2x + x + 6

And 57 people are transported:

3x + 6 = 57

We can then solve.

3x = 57 - 6

3x = 51

x = 17

So since we now know a small can hold 17 people, and we know that the larger van has 6 more seats, we can just say

17 + 6 = 23

So the large van has 23 seats.
