Answer:
2
Step-by-step explanation:
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
(a)
The inverse is when you swap the variables and solve for y.
g(t) = 2t - 1 (Note: g(t) represents y)
rewrite as: y = 2t - 1
swap the variables: t = 2y - 1
solve for y: t + 1 = 2y

= y
Answer for (a):
=
(b)
Same steps as part (a) above:
h(t) = 4t + 3
rewrite as: y = 4t + 3
swap the variables: t = 4y + 3
solve for y:
Answer for (b):
= 
(c)

replace all t's in the

equation with

=

=

=

=
Answer for (c):
= 
(d)
h(g(t)) = h(2t - 1) = 4(2t - 1) + 3 = 8t - 4 + 3 = 8t - 1
Answer for (d): h(g(t)) = 8t - 1
(e)
h(g(t)) = 8t - 1
y = 8 t - 1
t = 8y - 1
t + 1 = 8y

= y
Answer for (e): inverse of h(g(t)) =
