Answer:
No. pp you can fit in a van: 6,
No. pp you can fit in a bus: 20
Step-by-step explanation:
Let v = # of pp in vans, and let b = # of pp in buses:
8v + 9b = 228,
4v + 5b = 124
If we solve this system of equations by substitution, we isolate the first eq. for v and then substitute into the bottom eq:
v = 228-9b/8,
Substitute v = 228-9b/8 into bottom eq:
[4 * 228-9b/8 + 5b = 125]
[228+b/2=124]
[228+b = 248]
[b = 20]
Now substitute 20 to find no. of pp in the vans:
v = 228 - 9(20)/8 = 228 - 180/8 = 48/8 = 6
Answer:
About 4 hours.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's set up a proportion and cross multiply.

Cross multiply.
120 = 28x
Divide by 28 on both sides.
= 4.28571428571
Round this to the nearest whole number, which is just 4. The answer is about 4 hours.
Answer:
17/7
Step-by-step explanation:
2g+2(-8+2g)=1-g
2g-16+4g=1-g
6g-16=1-g
6g-(-g)-16=1
6g+g=1+16
7g=17
g=17/7
