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

The walls are vertical so the angle opposite X would be a right angle which is 90 degrees.

X would be 180 - 90 - 35 = 55 degrees

X and 2y - 5 are complementary angles which add together to equal 90:

2y - 5 + 55 = 90

Simplify:

2y +50 = 90

Subtract 50 from both sides:

2y = 40

Divide both sides by 2:

y = 20
