Use b for bicycles b and t for tricycles.
We know that each bicycle has 2 wheels, and each tricycle has 3 wheels, and if the entire number of wheels is 57, that means the
equation would be: 2b + 3t = 57
We can "separate" b by calling it "25 - t" as an alternative,
2(25 - t) + 3t = 57, or
50 - 2t + 3t = 57,
or 50 + t = 57, so
t = 7 So there must be 18 bicycles and 7 tricycles.
CHECKING:You can check this out by multiplying 7 tricycles x 3 wheels, which is 21,
and 18 bicycles x 2 wheels, which is 36
36 + 21 = 57

-x² + 8x - 6 = 0
x = <u>-(8) +/- √((8)² - 4(-1)(-6))</u>
2(-1)
x = <u>-8 +/- √(64 - 20)</u>
-2
x = <u>-8 +/- √(44)
</u> -2<u>
</u>x = <u>-8 +/- 2√(11)
</u> -2
x = <u>-8 + 2√(11)</u> x = <u>-8 - 2√(11)
</u> -2 -2<u>
</u>x = 4 - √(11) x = -8 + √(11)
The answer to this question is 30.
Answer:
B) 42:28
Step-by-step explanation:
First, let's get 12:18 simplified to make it easier to compare:
12:18 -> 4:6 - > <u>2:3</u>
Now let's check it against all the options:
A) 20:30 -> 2:3 and 2:3 = 2:3
Not our answer as it is congruent (equal too, the same as, etc)
B) We can see that the first number is larger than the second number, so without doing too much math we can see this is our answer!
42:28
(it simplifes to 6:4 -> 3:2)
(we do not have to do the following as we already have an answer, but here is the math)
C) 4:6
4:6 ->
2:3 = 2:3
D) 2:3
2:3 = 2:3
