A bicycle has 2 wheels and a tricycle has 3 wheels. Both have only 1 seat so he saw a total of 32 bikes.

Let "x" represent the number of bicycles and "y" represent the number of tricycles. <em>The solution below is using the substitution method.</em>

x + y = 32 → x = 32 - y

2x + 3y = 77 → 2(32 - y) + 3y = 77 → 64 - 2y + 3y = 77 → 64 + y = 77 → y = 13

Answer: 13 tricycles

  • Bicycles: 1 seat and 2 wheels
  • Tricycles: 1 seat and 3 wheels

So with this, we will be making a system of equations. One representing the amount of seats and one representing the amount of wheels. Let x = bicycles and y = tricycles:

x+y=32\\2x+3y=77

With this, I will be using the substitution method. Firstly, subtract y on both sides of the first equation:

x=32-y\\2x+3y=77

Next, substitute x in the second equation for (32 - y) and solve for y:

2(32-y)+3y=77\\64-2y+3y=77\\64+y=77\\y=13

<u>In short, there are 13 tricycles.</u>

Elevator 1 in a building moved from ground position to a final position of +13 feet. Elevator 2 in the same building moved from
Marina CMI [18]

The correct answer I believe you are looking for is D. Elevator 1 is 13 feet above ground level, and Elevator 2 is 10 feet below ground level.

<u>Explaination:</u>

This is because if you start at (0, 0) Elevator one, will go up 13 on the y axis. Putting it at 13 feet above ground level. If you start Elevator 2 at ground level on (0, 0) and go down 10 it will make it -10 AKA 10 feet below ground level.


I hope this helps! :)

Compare the line passing through the points (–2, –9) and (4, 6) to the line given by the equation y = 25x – 4.
elena-s [515]

Answer:

D. They have the same y-intercep

Step-by-step explanation:

Before the comparison will be efficient, let's determine the equation of the two points and the x intercept .

(–2, –9) and (4, 6)

Gradient= (6--9)/(4--2)

Gradient= (6+9)/(4+2)

Gradient= 15/6

Gradient= 5/2

Choosing (–2, –9)

The equation of the line

(Y+9)= 5/2(x+2)

2(y+9)= 5(x+2)

2y +18 = 5x +10

2y =5x -8

Y= 5/2x -4

Choosing (4, 6)

The equation of line

(Y-6)= 5/2(x-4)

2(y-6) = 5(x-4)

2y -12 = 5x -20

2y = 5x-8

Y= 5/2x -4

From the above solution it's clear that the only thing the both equation have in common to the given equation is -4 which is the y intercept

What’s 7= y-2/3 if you’re solving for y
Rus_ich [418]

Answer:

y = 23/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplify both sides of equation

7 = y + -2/3

Flip equation

y + -2/3 = 7

Add 2/3 to both sides

y + -2/3 + 2/3 = 7 + 2/3

y = 23/3
