make up an equation and solve it to find the number of people in each taxi Answer by TimothyLamb(4379) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! x = number of people per taxi
y = total size of group
---
6x + 4 = y
4x + 16 = y
---
put the system of linear equations into standard form
---
6x - y = -4
4x - y = -16
---
copy and paste the above standard form linear equations in to this solver:
