Answer:

Van: 18

Bus: 24

Step-by-step explanation:

V + 10B = 258

V = 258 - 10B

8V + 5B = 264

8(258 - 10B) + 5B = 264

2064 - 80B + 5B = 264

75B = 1800

B = 24

V = 258 - 10(24) = 18

Answer:

The van holds 18 students

The bus holds 24 students

Step-by-step explanation:

v = van  b = bus

High School A

1v+10b = 258

High School B

8v+5b = 264

Multiply the second equation by -2

-16v - 10b = -528

Add  this to the first equation

-16v - 10b = -528

1v+10b = 258

---------------------------

-15v      = -270

Divide each side by -15

-15v/-15 = -270/-15

v =18

The van holds 18 students

Now we need to find the number the bus holds

1v+10b = 258

18 + 10b = 258

Subtract 18 from each side

18-18+10b = 258-18

10b=240

Divide each side by 10

10b/10 =240/10

b = 24

The bus holds 24

How would you solve this?
gulaghasi [49]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the slope = -2/1

Find the y-intercept = 5

Go to graph

put a dot at (0,5)

since it's a negative slope you will go up 2 and left 1

draw your line

_________________________________________________

Find the slope = 3/1

Find the y-intercept = 0

go to graph

Put a dot at (0,0)

Since it is a positive slope you will go down 3 and left 1.

To find the slope and y-intercept use this formula=

y=mx+b

m=slope

b=y-intercept

I'm sorry I don't know how to do a check equation for these.

Gnoma [55]

Answer:

Word/phrase : Equation

Equation:4x + 2 = $30

He can afford to buy 7 books without spending more than his gift certificate amount

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1

We find the equation

Brett has a $30 online gift certificate. He plans to buy as many books as he can. The cost of each book is $4. There is also a single shipping charge of $2.

Hence,

$4 × x + $2 = $30

Where x = number of books that he can buy

4x + 2 = $30

Step 2

We solve for x

4x + 2 = 30

4x = 30 - 2

4x = 28

x = 28/4

x = 7

Hence, Brett can buy 7 books

Equation: 4x + 2 = $30

Word/phrase : Equation

He can afford to buy 7 books without spending more than his gift certificate amount

Which equation contains the points (-1,-8) and (3,4)
katrin [286]

Answer:

y = 3x –5

Step-by-step explanation:

for slope-intercept form, y = mx + b

find the slope, m

(-8 -4)/(-1-3) = m

-12/-4 =m

3 = m

Substitute for m and use either coordinate for y and x to calculate b

4 = 3(3) + b

4 = 9 + b. Subtract 9 from both sides

4 –9 = b

–5 = b. Rewrite the equation with the calculated values for m and b

y = 3x –5
