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
Essentially, the rule goes as so: odd + odd = even, even + even = even.
Although that may not be the answer you're looking for, it is a math rule that is never debunked and essentially the premises for why you get an even sum practically always depending on the numbers.
Hope this helps!
Answer: C. 5(6) + 0.65y
Step-by-step explanation:
Process of elimination.
65% of y = 0.65y
A has 65y, completely incorrect.
B has 6y, also completely incorrect.
<u>C has 0.65y, correct.</u>
D has 1.65y, also completely incorrect.
P=15.5 would be the answer
Answer:
down below
Step-by-step explanation:
1) 4% of 120 = 4.8, so 120+4.8 = 124.8 cm tall
2) 12% of 6000 = 720 . 6000-720 = 5280 gallons
3) 22% of 200 = 44 . 200-44 = 156
4) 30% of 40 - 12 . 40 - 12 = $28
5) 35% of 140 = $49 . 140 + 49 = $189
