Answer:

Number of students in vans =15 and bus =46

Step-by-step explanation:

use variables for the vans and buses

let x= vans and y=buses

Now solve the 2 equations simultaneously

<em><u>remember</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>to</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>number</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>your</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>equations</u></em>

6x+7y=412..........1

6x+9y=504.........2

make x the subject of one equation

and label it equation 3

6x=412—7y

x =  \frac{206}{3}  -  \frac{7y}{6} .............3

subs 3 into 2

6( \frac{206}{3}  -  \frac{7y}{6} ) + 9y = 504

412 - 7y + 9y = 504

- 7y + 9y = 504 - 412

2y = 92

y = 46...................4

subs 4 into 1

6x + 7(46) = 412

6x + 322 = 412

6x = 412 - 322

6x = 90

x = 15

Therefore there are 15 students in each van and 46 students in each bus.

The perimeter includes that length plus the lengths of two straight sides that are 15 units each.

  P = 31.4 + 2×15
