41. Six bus loads containing x students each came to band day from one school, 7 bus loads containing x students came from another school. Fourteen students came by car.
6x+7x+14=# of students who came
--------------
42. Arlene unloaded 4 boxes each containing v video tapes and 3 boxes each containing y + 2 video tapes.
4v+(y+2)v = # of video tapes
---------------
43. Janet brought 3 folders costing x cents each and 2 report covers costing x cents each. She also purchased 1 binder for $1.89
2x+2x+189 = amount Janet spent in cents
-----------------
44. Mr. Unruh purchased 5 movie tickets for x dollars each. He also purchased a soda or $1.25 and popcorn for $2.25.
5x+1.25+2.25= amount Mr. Unruh spent in dollars
