-4x - 2(8x + 1) = -(-2x - 10)

The first step is to distribute. On the left side of the equation, multiply the -2 by both terms inside the parentheses; on the right side of the equation, multiply the -1 by both terms inside the parentheses:

-4x - 2(8x + 1) = -(-2x - 10)
-4x - 16x - 2 = 2x + 10

Next, combine like terms.

-4x - 16x - 2 = 2x + 10
-20x - 2 = 2x + 10

Then subtract 2x from both sides and add 2 to both sides to get like terms together; combine like terms.

-20x - 2 = 2x + 10
-20x - 2x = 2 + 10
-22x = 12

Lastly, divide both sides by -22 and simplify.

-22x = 12
x = 12/-22
x = -6/11

Answer:
-6/11

A company uses two vans to transport workers between 7:00 and 9:00 am. One van has 5 more seats than the other. The smaller van
Alexeev081 [22]
<h2>Hello!</h2>

The answer is: 27 seats

<h2>Why?</h2>

Let's make the equations with the given information:

x=SmallVanSeats\\y=LargeVanSeats

Then, if the larger van has five (5) more seats than the smaller van:

y-x=5

So, if the smaller van makes two trips and the larger just makes one, transporting a maximum of 71 people:

y+2x=71

By substituting equation 1 into equation 2, we have:

(5+x)+2x=71\\3x=71-5\\3x=66\\x=\frac{66}{3}=22

So, the smaller van has 22 seats, to find how many seats has the larger van we just need to substitute the number of seats of the smaller van into the first equation:

y-22=5\\y=22+5=27

So, the larger van has 27 seats.

Have a nice day!
