Let the number of bike be x and the number of skates be y, then
21x + 20y ≥ 362 . . . (1)
2y = x . . . (2)

Putting (2) into (1), then
21(2y) + 20y ≥ 362
42y + 20y ≥ 362
62y ≥ 362
y ≥ 5.84

The least number of pairs of skates they need to rent each day to make their minimum is 6.

Which expression is an equivalent expression of 12x + 10 + 4y?
Klio2033 [76]
You basically multiply the number outside the parentheses by everything inside.
So 2 × 6x = 12x,
2 × 5 = 10,
2 × 2y = 4y.
So your answer is 2(6x + 5 + 2y).
