Answer:
B. 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's make an equation for this. Our unknown number is x.
x
We are adding 4.
x + 4
Then multiplying by 5.
(x + 4) • 5
It will equal 35.
(x + 4) • 5 = 35
To solve this, divide both sides by 5.
(x + 4) = 7
Now subtract 4 from both sides.
x = 3
This is your answer.
Check this by plugging it back into our original equation.
(x + 4) • 5 = 35
(3 + 4) • 5 = 35
7 • 5 = 35
35 = 35
Your answer is correct.
Hope this helps!
Quantitive since it can be counted
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
