Question

Were only 64 seats. The remaining 6 students had to travel in a separate van.

The equation 2b + 6 = 70 represents the given scenario. What does b represent?

the number of buses
the number of vans
the number of students who rode on each bus
the total number of students going to the football game

Answer 1

the number of buses

Explanation:

I am not completely sure on this one. It is indeed talking about vans and not buses, but there is no variable that would be for vans "v". So I'm going to go with, "the number of buses" Because it says, there was only 64 seats, and 6 students didn't get a seat. So they had to ride a different van/bus. So 64 + 6 = 70. That means there is 1 filled bus with 64 students, and then another one that has 6 students. So there is 2 buses.
