Answer: there are eight bicycles and 7 tricycles.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of bicycles that are there.

Let y represent the number of tricycles that are there.

There are a total of 15 bicycles and tricycles. This means that

x + y = 15

A bicycle has 2 wheels and a tricycle has 3 wheels. There are 37 wheels all together if we count them up. This means that

2x + 3y = 37- - - - - - - - - - - - - 1

Substituting x = 15 - y into equation 1, it becomes

2(15 - y) + 3y = 37

30 - 2y + 3y = 37

- 2y + 3y = 37 - 30

y = 7

x = 15 - y = 15 - 7

x = 8

Input the equation of the given line in standard form the line with m=-1/2 and the point (-2,-3)
rosijanka [135]

Answer:

The equation would be x + 2y = -8

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the standard form of this line, start by using point-slope form with the given information. Then solve for the constant.

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y + 3 = -1/2(x + 2)

y + 3 = -1/2x - 1

1/2x + y + 3 = -1

1/2x + y = -4

x + 2y = -8

The graphs of g(x) has only one x-intercept and is an odd function. The points (0,0), (1,3), and (3,1) are on the graphs of g(x)
Eddi Din [679]

Using translation concepts, it is found that the new intercepts are given as follows:

  • x-intercept: (1, 0).
  • y-intercept: (0, -3).

<h3>What is a translation?</h3>

A translation is represented by a change in the function graph, according to operations such as multiplication or sum/subtraction either in it’s definition or in it’s domain. Examples are shift left/right or bottom/up, vertical or horizontal stretching or compression, and reflections over the x-axis or the y-axis.

In this problem, the function was shifted one unit right, hence the rule for the translated function is given by:

(x,y) -> (x + 1, y).

The y-intercept is given by f(0), hence for the shifted function it will be f(-1). We have that f(x) is an odd function and f(1) = 3, hence f(-1) = -f(1) = -3.

The x-intercept is given by x when f(x) = 0, hence:

(0,0) -> (0 + 1, 0) = (1,0).

4x + 1/3 y 2 what is the value of the expression above when x = 2 and y = 3
GenaCL600 [577]
Hoi!

To solve this, first plug in the values for x and y.

x = 2, so anywhere you see x, put 2 in its place.

y = 3, so anywhere you see y, put 3 in its place.

4(2) +  \frac{1}{2}(3)

4 × 2 = 8

\frac{1}{2} × 3 = 1 \frac{1}{2}


8 +1 \frac{1}{2} = 9 \frac{1}{2}

9 \frac{1}{2} is your answer.
