ll the students. On the first trip there were 3 vans and two buses with 122 students. The second trip was more popular, with 5 vans and 3 buses, carrying 189 students. Use a system of equations to determine the number of students that a van and a bus can carry

Answer:

bus = 43

van 12

Step-by-step explanation:

This can be solved using simultaneous equations

Let v represent the number of students that a van carries

Let b represent the number of students that a bus carries

the following equations can be derived from the question

3v + 2b = 122 eqn 1

5v + 3b = 189  eqn 2

Multiply eqn 1 by 5 and eqn 2 by 3

15v + 10b = 610  eqn 3

15v + 9b = 567 eqn 4

Subtract equation 4 from 3

b = 43

Substitute for b in equation 1

3v + 2(43) = 122

solve for v

v = 12

Answer:

1. $85

2. $90.10

3.$108.12

4.$54.06

Step-by-step explanation:

100-15=85 (15% of 100 is 15)

6 percent of 85 is 5.10. So 85 + 5.10=90.10

20 percent of 90.10 is 18.02. So add that to the total. 90.10+18.02=108.12

Now divide by 2 to get how much they each will pay 108.12/2 = 54.06
