The senior class at High School A rented and filled 14 vans and 12 buses with 612 students. High School B rented and filled 7 vans and 13 buses with 516 students. Each van and each bus carried the same number of students. How many students can a van carry? How many students can a bus carry?

Respuesta :

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Solving simultaneously

14v + 12b = 612 .....(1)

7v + 13b = 516 ......(2)

eqn (1) - [eqn (2) x 2]

14v + 12b = 612 ...(1)

14v + 26b = 1,032 ...(3)

-14b = -420

b = 30

7v + 13(30) = 516

7v + 390 = 516

7v = 126

v = 18

therefore 1 bus carries 30 students and 1 van carries 18 students
