Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1 oz = 0.0625 lb

Ratio of the hiker an backpack in the first row = 152.25 lb : 14.5 lb

                                                                            = 21 : 2

Hiker's weight       Backpack weight                  Total weight (in lb)

1). 152 lb 4 oz                14 lb 8 oz                (152+14) lb (4+8) oz = 164lb 12oz

                                                                                                  = 16.75 lb

2). 107 lb 10 oz               10 lb 4 oz                (107+10) lb (10+4) oz = 117 lb 14 oz

                                                                                                        = 117.875 lb

3). 129 lb 15 oz           \frac{129.9375}{x}=\frac{21}{2}                 (129+12) lb (15+6)oz = 141 lb 21 oz

                              x = 12.375 lb                                                      = 142.3125lb

                              x = 12 lb 6 oz

4). \frac{x}{8.75}=\frac{21}{2}                   8 lb 12 oz                 (8 + 91) lb (14+12) oz = 99 lb 26 lb

   x = 91.875 lb                                                                                = 100.625 lb

  x = 91 lb 14 oz

5). \frac{x}{10}=\frac{21}{2}                     10 lb                           (105 + 10) lb = 115 lb

    x = 105 lb

in a parade, each tricycle and bicycle have one rider.There are 64 wheels and 28 riders.How many tricycles are there? can you sh
Ann [662]

Answer:

8 tricycles

Step-by-step explanation:

Make a system of equations

Let t represent tricycles, and b represent bicycles

We know that tricycles have 3 wheels, bicycles have 2, and there are a total of 64 wheels

We also know each has one rider, and there are a total of 28 riders

3t+2b=64

t+b=28

Subtract t from both sides in the second equation. This will allow us to use substitution

b= -t+28

Substitute -t+28 in for b in the first equation

3t+2b=64

3t+2(-t+28)=64

Distribute the 2

3t + 2*-t+ 2* 28 =64

3t-2t+56=64

Combine like terms

t+56=64

Subtract 56 from both sides

t=8

There were 8 tricycles
