Answer:
12 bikes
9 tricycles
Step-by-step explanation:
x+y=21
2x+3y=51
x=-y+21
2(-y+21)+3y=51
-2y+42+3y=51
y+42=51
y=9
x=12
Here is the set up:
Let x and y be the two numbers with x the smaller and y the larger number.
x + y = 66
2x = y + 15
We have two equations in two unknowns.
Take it from here.
Multiply 1/5 by 11 to get 2.2, to check, multiply 2.2 by 5. The answer though, is 2.2.
