The answer is: " -5/3 " ; or, write as: " -1 ⅔ " .

Explanation:

(-5/6) + (-5/6) = (-5/6) <span>− (5/6) ;
------> {since: "adding a negative" is the same a "subtracting a positive"} ;
------> </span> (-5/6) − (5/6) = (-5 − 5) / 6 ;
= -10/6 = (-10/2) / (6/2) ;

= " -5/3 " ; or, write as: " -1 ⅔ " .

This works out beautifully. You COULD use long division here, but since your numerator is a quadratic, your first instinct should be to try and factor it. If you factor it, it works out to be (x - 3)(x + 2). Now it just so happens that when you do that, the (x - 3) in the numerator will cancel with the (x - 3) in the denominator leaving you with one sad and lonely (x + 2) as your answer.
Step-by-step explanation: look so if you have
shcool A its 8v+4b=12
and
School B: 12v+4b= 16
since both classes used 4 busses we can use elimination by subtracting the A class Equation from the b class equation to solve from v for its value Then, use either equation and the now found value for v to solve for b.
You should find part of the process to be
12v+4b-(8v+4b)=12-16 which shows the van holds only a few people even before continuing the solution.
Answer -4
Your answer would be y=5/3x+8
