Write a System of Equations to solve the following problem: The county fair is a popular field trip destination. This year the senior class at High School A and the senior class at High School B both planned trips there. The senior class at High School A rented and filled 13 vans and 2 buses with 211 students. High School B rented and filled 4 vans

and 4 buses with 268 students. Each van and each bus carried the same number of students. Find the number of students in each van and in each bus.

#students each VAN can carry:

#students each BUS can carry:

each van carries 7 students

each bus carries 60 students

Step-by-step explanation:

let v = # students in a van

let b = # students in a bus

system of equations:

13v + 2b = 211

4v + 4b = 268

I multiplied the 1st equation by -2 to eliminate the 'b' terms

 -26v - 4b = -422

+ 4v  + 4b = 268

-22v = -154

v = 7

substitute  '7' for 'v':

4(7) + 4b = 268

28 + 4b = 268

4b = 240

b = 60

13v + 2b = 211

4v + 4b = 268

#students each VAN can carry:   7

#students each BUS can carry: 60

Step-by-step explanation:

Let v = number of students in each van.

Let b = number of students in each bus.

High School A:

13v + 2b = 211

High School B:

4v + 4b = 268

The system of equations is

13v + 2b = 211

4v + 4b = 268

We will solve this system of equation with the addition method.

Write the first equation as it is. Divide both sides of the first equation by 2 and write it below the first equation. Then add the equations.

        13v + 2b = 211

(+)     -2v - 2b = -134

        11v         = 77

Divide both sides by 11.

v = 7

Substitute 7 for v in the first original equation and solve for b.

13v + 2b = 211

13(7) + 2b = 211

91 + 2b = 211

Subtract 91 from both sides.

2b = 120

Divide both sides by 2.

b = 60

13v + 2b = 211

4v + 4b = 268

#students each VAN can carry:   7

#students each BUS can carry: 60

step-by-step explanation:

$320 to $405

step by step explanation:

in one day he earns between $64 and $81

therefore if he works for 5 days, he will earn between 64 x 5 to 81 x 5

= $320 to $405
