1 car - 4 wheels
1 motorcycle - 2 wheels

x - number of cars
y - number of motorcycles

so, there are 70 vehicles: x + y = 70
and all togeather they've got 258 wheels: 4*x + 2*y = 258
because each car has 4 wheels, so all car wheels = 4*x,
likewise 2*y for motorcycles

x + y = 70  /* 4
4 x + 2y = 258

4 x + 4 y = 280  (R1)
4 x + 2y = 258    (R2)

2y = 22  /:2      it is R1 - R2
x = 70 - y

y = 11    /motorcycles
x = 70 - 11 = 59  /cars

check:
59 + 11 = 70  ok
59 * 4 + 11 * 2 = 236 + 22 = 258  ok

What is the equation of the line that passes through the point (-2,3) and is parallel to the line whose equation is y = 3/2x - 4
Kisachek [45]

Answer:

y = 3/2x + 6

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 3/2x - 4

y-intercept through point (-2, 3):

3 = 3/2(-2) + b

3 = -3 + b

b = 6

Equation of line:

y = mx + b

y = 3/2x + 6

**Parallel line share the same slope, in this case 3/2.
