Answer:
16 tricycles
12 bicycles
Step-by-step explanation:
If all were bicycles, there would be 28·2 = 56 wheels. Each additional wheel indicates the presence of a tricycle instead of a bicycle.
There are 72 -56 = 16 tricycles. The remaining 28-16 = 12 are bicycles.
Answer:
10.5
Step-by-step explanation:
You can use ratios to solve this problem.
The original dimensions of the photo is
5 in. by 7 in.
This can be written as:
5:7
And the next is 7.5:?
Then you can use ratios to solve this.
5:7=
7.5:?
5*1.5=7.5 so you can multiply the other side by the same thing. 7*1.5=10.5
The width is 10.5 inches.

Answer:
Stephen weighs 80 lbs
Graham weighs 60 lbs
Step-by-step explanation:
Let Stephen the cat = S
Let Graham the cat = G
25% heavier = 125% = 125/100 = 1.25
50% heavier = 150% = 150/100 = 1.5
If both animals gained 20 lbs, S would be 25% heavier than G:
S + 20 = 1.25(G + 20)
⇒ S = 1.25(G + 20) - 20
⇒ S = 1.25G + 5
If both animals lost 20 lbs, S would be 50% heavier than G:
S - 20 = 1.5(G - 20)
⇒ S = 1.5(G - 20) + 20
⇒ S = 1.5G - 10
Equate both equations for S, and solve for G:
S = S
⇒ 1.25G + 5 = 1.5G - 10
⇒ -0.25G = -15
⇒ G = 60
Substitute found value for G into one of the equations for S and solve for S:
S = 1.5G - 10
⇒ S = 1.5 x 60 - 10
⇒ S = 90 - 10
⇒ S = 80
Stephen weighs 80 lbs
Graham weighs 60 lbs
