Answer:
2
Step-by-step explanation:
but I would personally say FISH
You will need to set up and solve 2 equations:
A) 3 Vans + 10 Buses = 379
B) 14Vans + 13 Buses = 624
Multiply equation A by -14
A) -42 Vans -140 Buses = -5,306 then Multiply equation B by 3
B) 42 Vans + 39 Buses = 1,872
Adding BOTH equations
-101 Buses = -3,434
Each Bus holds 34 Students
Putting this into equation A
A) 3 Vans + 10 Buses = 379
A) 3 Vans + 10 * 34 = 379
A) 3 Vans +340 = 379
A) 3 Vans = 39
Each van = 13 students
Answer:
(12, -6)

- Solving systems of equations using substitution/elimination
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define Systems</u>
-4x = y - 42
x = 18 + y
<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>y</u></em>
- Substitute in <em>x</em>: -4(18 + y) = y - 42
- Distribute -4: -72 - 4y = y - 42
- [Addition Property of Equality] Add 4y on both sides: -72 = 5y - 42
- [Addition Property of Equality] Add 42 on both sides: -30 = 5y
- [Division Property of Equality] Divide 5 on both sides: -6 = y
- Rewrite/Rearrange: y = -6
<u>Step 3: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>
- Define original equation: x = 18 + y
- Substitute in <em>y</em>: x = 18 - 6
- Subtract: x = 12
% means out of a hundred. So, 140% should be 140/100.
