The Wheel Shop sells other kinds of vehicles. There are bicycles and go-carts in a different room of the shop. Each bicycle has

only one seat and each go-cart has only one seat. There are a total of 21 seats and 54 wheels in that room. How many are bicycles and how many are go-carts? Explain how you figured it out.

Answer:

15 bicycle and 6 go-cart.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,  

There are a total of 21 seat and 54 wheels in the room.  

Assume there are x number of bicycle.  

Since, each bicycle has only one seat and each go-cart has only one seat.  

Then, the number of go-cart is (21-x)

There are two wheels in a bicycle.

Total number of wheel in x number of bicycle is = (2.x)=2x  

There are four wheels in a go-cart.  

Total number of wheel in (21-x) number of go-cart =4(21-x)  

According to the problem,  

2x+4(21-x)=54  

⇒2x+84-4x=54  

⇒2x-4x=54-84  

⇒ -2x=  -30  

\Rightarrow x=\frac{-30}{-2}

⇒x = 15  

Hence, there are 15 bicycle and (21- 15)=6 go-cart

HELP ME Write and solve a proportion to find y.
Phoenix [80]

Given:

A figure of dilation and the center of dilation is O.

To find:

The value of y.

Solution:

The distance between center and vertex of image (d') is proportional to the distance between center and the corresponding vertex of original figure (d).

d'\propto d

d'=kd

\dfrac{d'}{d}=k

Where, k is the scale factor or constant of proportionality.

So, the scale factor for the given dilation is

k=\dfrac{OB'}{OB}

k=\dfrac{36}{16}

k=\dfrac{9}{4}

We know that,

k=\dfrac{\text{Side length of image}}{\text{Corresponding side length of original figure}}

\dfrac{9}{4}=\dfrac{A'C'}{AC}

\dfrac{9}{4}=\dfrac{27}{y}

9\times y=27\times 4

Divide both sides by 9.

y=\dfrac{27\times 4}{9}

y=3\times 4

y=12

Therefore, the value of y is 12.
