Answer:
a. A = -1 and B = 1
b. A = 7 and B = -5
Step-by-step explanation:
a.



To the equation be true, the "x-parts" and "nonx-parts" mist be the same, so:
Ax + Bx = 0
(A + B)x = 0
A + B = 0
A = -B
B - A = 2
B - (-B) = 2
2B = 2
B = 1 and A = -1
b.



To the equation be true, the "x-parts" and "nonx-parts" mist be the same, so:
Ax + Bx = 2x
(A + B)x = 2x
A + B = 2
A = 2 - B
2A + 3B = -1
2*(2-B) + 3B = -1
4 - 2B + 3B = -1
B = -5 and A = 2 - (-5) = 7
Question 1
The answer is last one. Y would equal 7+24 not 7-24.
Answer: Van: 10, Bus: 46
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of students in each van be represented by v.
Let the number of students in each bus be represented by b.
The question given can be formed into an equation as:
3v + 13b = 628 ...... i
9v + 2b = 182 ......... ii
Multply equation i by 9
Multiply equation ii by 3
27v + 117b = 5652 ........ iii
27v + 6b = 546 ....... iv
Subtract iv from iii
111b = 5106
b = 5106/111
b = 46
Bus = 46
Recall that 9v + 2b = 182
9v + 2(46) = 182
9v + 92 = 182
9v = 182 - 92
9v = 90
v = 90/9
v = 10
Van = 10
