s+v = 130 subtract s from both sides: v = 130-s
\n" ); document.write( "Next:
\n" ); document.write( "4.50s+6.50v = 617 substitute for v:
\n" ); document.write( "4.50s+6.50(130-s) = 617
\n" ); document.write( "= 4.50s+845-6.50s = 617
\n" ); document.write( "= -2s = -230 divide both sides by -2, and remember -/- = +
\n" ); document.write( "s = 115
\n" ); document.write( "115 students showed up.
