Answer: There are 385 students and teachers who rode to the zoo in buses and 24 students and teachers who rode to the zoo in trains.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Total number of students and teachers = 409

Let the number of vans be x

Let the number of buses be x+5

Number of students and teachers each bus transported = 55

Number of students and teachers each van transported = 12

According to question,

55(x+5)+12x=409\\\\55x+275+12x=409\\\\67x=409-275\\\\67x=134\\\\x=\frac{134}{67}\\\\x=2

Total number of students and teachers who rode to the zoo in buses will be

55(x+5)\\\\=55(2+5)\\\\=55\times 7\\\\=385

Total number of students and teachers who rode to the zoo in vans will be

12x\\\\=12\times 2=24

Hence, there are 385 students and teachers who rode to the zoo in buses and 24 students and teachers who rode to the zoo in trains.

Solve for x. Show each step of the solution. Show all work. 4.5(8-x)+36-2.5(3x+24)=102
sergejj [24]

4.5(8 - x) + 36 = 102 - 2.5(3x + 24)

36 - 4.5x + 36 = 102 - 7.5x - 60

72 - 4.5x = 42 - 7.5x

-4.5x + 7.5x = 42 - 72

3x = - 30

x = -30/3

x = -10 <===

Hope this helps!
