An airport shuttle company owns sedans that have a maximum capacity of 3 passengers and vans that have a maximum capacity of 8 passengers. Their 12 vehicles have a combined maximum capacity of 61 passengers.


Which system could be used to find out how many vans and sedans the company owns?

a)

3s + 8v = 61

s + v = 12

b)

s + v = 61

3s + 8v = 12

c)

s + v = 61

s + v = 12

d)

3s + 8v = 61

3s + 8v = 12

8.

A drummer and a guitarist each wrote songs for their band. The guitarist wrote 8 fewer than twice the number of songs the drummer wrote. They wrote a total of 46 songs.


Which system of equations models this situation if the drummer wrote d songs and the guitarist wrote g songs?

a)

g = 2d – 8

g + d = 46

b)

g = 8 – 2d

g = 46 – d

c)

d = 2g – 8

d = 46 – g

d)

d = 8 – 2g

d + g = 46

On Tuesday the bus traveled the Green Route 10 times and Black Route 5 times, traveling a total of 90 miles.


Which system of equations could be used to find length of the Black Route in miles?

a)

6g + 8b = 90

10g + 5b = 82

b)

6g + 8b = 82

10g + 5b = 90

c)

8g + 6b = 90

10g + 5b = 82

d)

8g + 6b = 82

10g + 5b = 90

10.
