Answer: 2 buses and 4 vans would be needed

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of buses that would be needed.

Let y represent the number of vans that would be needed.

There will be six drivers, and two different types of vehicles. This means that

x + y = 6

142 students are going on a field trip. A bus can hold 51 people while a van can hold 10. This means that

51x + 10y = 142 - - - - - - - - - - - 1

Substituting x = 6 - y into equation 1, it becomes

51(6 - y) + 10y = 142

306 - 51y + 10y = 142

- 51y + 10y = 142 - 306

- 41y = - 164

y = - 164/ - 41

y = 4

x = 6 - y = 6 - 4

x = 2

18u^4w^6y^7+12u^9w^8
tatyana61 [14]

Answer:

6u^4w^6(3y^7+2u^5w^2)

Step-by-step explanation:

18u^4w^6y^7+12u^9w^8

we can only take common factor

18 and 12 have 6 as a common factor

in variables we have

u^4w^6y^7 and u^9w^8 so we see clearly that it is u^4w^6

so we have

6u^4w^6(3y^7+2u^5w^2)

as far as you can go

Describe how you would Use the distributive property to simplify 39 * 5
SIZIF [17.4K]
To use the distributive property in this equation, you would separate 39 into 30 and 9. Then you would multiply 5 by 30 and 5 by 9. Hope this helps! :D
