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
We have to find x and x is the hypotenuse. We use this formula:
hyp²=side²+side²
So:
hyp²=side²+side²
hyp²= 12²+9²
hyp²= 225
hyp²= √225
hyp= 15
Therefore, the hypotenuse is 15 and x is 15.
