The senior classes at High school A and High school B planned separate trips to New York city. The senior class at high school A

rented and filled 1 van and 6 buses with 372 students, High school B rented and filled 4 vans and 12 buses with 780 students. Each van and each bus carried the same number of students. how many students can a van carry? How many students can a bus carry?

Each van carried 18 students and each bus carried 59 students.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let,

students carried by one van = x

students carried by one bus = y

According to given statement;

x+6y=372 Eqn 1

4x+12y=780 Eqn 2

Multiplying Eqn 1 by 4

$4(x+6y=372)\\4x+24y=1488\ \ \ Eqn\ 3$

Subtracting Eqn 2 from Eqn 3

$(4x+24y)-(4x+12y)=1488-780\\4x+24y-4x-12y=708\\12y=708$

Dividing both sides by 12

$\frac{12y}{12}=\frac{708}{12}\\y=59$

Putting y=59 in Eqn 1

$x+6(59)=372\\x+354=372\\x=372-354\\x=18$

Each van carried 18 students and each bus carried 59 students.

What is the solution of the equation 2X = 7? Round your answer to the nearest ten-thousand.

Andru [333]

Answer:

x =2.8074

Step-by-step explanation:

2^x = 7

Take the log of each side

log (2^x) = log (7)

We know log a^b = b log a

x log 2 = log 7

x = log (7) / log 2

x =2.80735

To the nearest tenth thousandth

x =2.8074

Which statements are true for solutions when there is a system of two linear equations in two variables? Select all that apply.

monitta

Answer: A system of linear equations consists of two or more linear equations made up of two or more variables, such that all equations in the system are considered simultaneously.

To find the unique solution to a system of linear equations, we must find a numerical value for each variable in the system that will satisfy all equations in the system at the same time.

In order for a linear system to have a unique solution, there must be at least as many equations as there are variables.

The solution to a system of linear equations in two variables is any ordered pair

(

x

,

y

)

that satisfies each equation independently. Graphically, solutions are points at which the lines intersect.

Key Terms

system of linear equations: A set of two or more equations made up of two or more variables that are considered simultaneously.

dependent system: A system of linear equations in which the two equations represent the

same line; there are an infinite number of solutions to a dependent system.

inconsistent system: A system of linear equations with no common solution because they

represent parallel lines, which have no point or line in common.

independent system: A system of linear equations with exactly one solution pair

(

x

,

y

)
