X = small van capacity, y = larger van capacity
y = x + 6
2x + y = 57
now we sub in x + 6 for y
2x + x + 6 = 57
3x + 6 = 57
3x = 57 - 6
3x = 51
x = 51/3
x = 17
y = x + 6
y = 17 + 6
y = 23
small van (x) has 17 seats and large van (y) has 23 seats
LET X= ADDITIONAL AMOUNT
<u>EQAUTION=</u> 5+2x=17
-5 -5
__________
2x=12
_______
2 2
X=6 IS THE ANSWER. HOPE THIS HELPS!!!!!
Answer: Your answer will be A
Hope this helps
Step-by-step explanation:
x(3.4+4.6+2.2)
x(10.2)
Each hiker will carry 10.2 lbs
if there are x hikers they will carry 10.2*x lbs
1/4
if 3/4 cyclists finish then that leaves 1/4 of the group that did not finish
