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
Nezavi [6.7K]
Class A: 6v + 8b = 202

Class B: 12v + 16b = 284

Solve using the elimination method:
since 6v and 12v are perfect for elimination, multiply the class A equation by 2 so that the van variable cancels out: 

12v + 16b = 404
12v + 10b = 284

Then subtract the bottom equation from the top:

6b = 120
b = 20 

Now you know that each bus can hold 20 students.
Just plug this into one of the original equations to solve for vans:

6v + 8(20) = 202
6v + 160 = 202
6v = 42 
v=7 

So then you know that each van can hold 7 students. 

Check:
12 (7) + 10 (20) = 284

What are the factors of the expression x^2+x-20?
tatyana61 [14]

Answer:

(x-4)(x+5)

Step-by-step explanation:

Find 2 numbers knowing sum (1) and product (-20). To find them, factor pairs of (-20) --> (-2,10) (-4,5). This sum is 1=b. Then, these 2 numbers are: - 4 and 5. Y=(x-4) (x+5). Hope this helped :)
