21 cars, 32 motorcycles.
create a system of equations using x for cars and y for motorcycles.
\left \{ {{x+y=53} \atop {4x+2y=148}} \right.
multiply the top equation by 2 to prepare for elimination method
\left \{ {{2x+2y=106} \atop {4x+2y=148}} \right.
subtract terms
\left \{ {{2x+2y=106} \atop {-4x-2y=-148}} \right.  = (-2x = -42)
divide both sides by negative 2 to solve for x
x =21
plug in x  into original equation to solve for y.
21 + y = 53
subtract both sides by 21
y=32

The sum of 3 integers is 194. the sum of the first and second integers exceeds the third by 80. The third integer is 45 less tha
kirill115 [55]
Let
x = first integer
y = second integer
z = third integer
First equation: x + y + z = 194
Second equation: x + y = z + 80
Third equation: z = x - 45

Let's find the values of x, y and z.
Substitute 3rd eq to 1st eq:
x + y + x - 45 = 194
2x + y = 45 + 194
y = -2x + 239

Plug in both we have solved for y and the 3rd eq to the 2nd eq to find x
x + (-2x + 239) = (x - 45) + 80
x - 2x - x = -45 + 80 - 239
-2x = -204
x = -204/-2
x = 102

Solving for y,
y = -2(102) + 239
y = 35

Solving for z,
z = 102 - 45
z = 57

Find the value of x.
sp2606 [1]

x = 64°

Step-by-step Explanation

x = 1/2[(360° - 2*58°)-2*58°]

x = 1/2[(360° - 2*58°) - 2*58°]

x = 1/2[(360° - 116°) - 116°]

x = 1/2[244° - 116°]

x = 1/2[128°]

x = 64°
