Take a picture of the problem so it's easier for people to figure out the solution.
-2 or 2 either one
Hope this helps
(0, 36) would be the point on the y axis, so 36 is the y-intercept, or the b value in the equation, y = mx + b.
(12,0) is the x-intercept, so we know the line has a negative slope.
The equation for these points would be:
y = -3x + 36
LETTER B
Answer:
16 bicycles and 21 tricycles
Step-by-step explanation:
Both bicycles and tricycles have 1 set of handlebars. Bicycles have 2 wheels while tricycles have 3.
Using this information, set up a system of equations, where b is the number of bicycles and t is the number of tricycles:
b + t = 37
2b + 3t = 95
Solve by elimination by multiplying the top equation by -2:
-2b - 2t = -74
2b + 3t = 95
t = 21
Then, plug in 21 as t into one of the equations:
b + t = 37
b + 21 = 37
b = 16
So, there are 16 bicycles and 21 tricycles
