-2a+2=22
3(a+4)-5(a-2)=22
3a+12-5a-10=22
-2a+12-10=22
-2a+2=22
X represents the number that would be added to the silver cars.
x/40= 4
X=40x4
x=160
Subtract the given 20 from 160 because 160 is the total number
160-20=140
Therefore 140 would be added to 20 silver cars to get the ratio1:4
Answer:
The number of bicycles is 19.
and the number of tricycles is 4.
Step-by-step explanation:
As we know that the number of seats in bicycles as well as in tricycles is 1.
The number of wheels in bicycles is 2
and the number of wheels in tricycles is 3.
Let the number of bicycles be x.
and the number of tricycles be y.
Thus using the given information we can make equation as,
x + y = 23
and, 2x + 3y = 50
Solving these two equations:
We get, x = 19 and y = 4
Thus the number of bicycles is 19.
and the number of tricycles is 4.
Any point on the x-axis beyond the point (4, 0) is a possible cordinate of R.
