Answer:

b< -76

Step-by-step explanation:

8 - 1/4 b > 27 ⇒ add -8 to both sides
-1/4b > 27 - 8
-1/4 b > 19 ⇒ multiply both sides by -4
b < - 4*19 ⇒ change inequality sing to opposite due to multiplication to negative number
b < - 76 ⇒ answer

Answer is any number smaller than -76

21 cars, 32 motorcycles.
create a system of equations using x for cars and y for motorcycles.
$\left \{ {{x+y=53} \atop {4x+2y=148}} \right.$
multiply the top equation by 2 to prepare for elimination method
$\left \{ {{2x+2y=106} \atop {4x+2y=148}} \right.$
subtract terms
$\left \{ {{2x+2y=106} \atop {-4x-2y=-148}} \right. = (-2x = -42)$
divide both sides by negative 2 to solve for x
x =21
plug in x into original equation to solve for y.
21 + y = 53
subtract both sides by 21
y=32
