Answer:
B = 4
T = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
First, figure out the equation.
We know that bicycles have 2 wheels, that there are 3 on a tricycle, and there are a total of 14 wheels and a total of 6 bicycles and tricycles.
Let b stand for bicycles and t stand for tricycles:
14 = 2b + 3t
6 = b + t
We can figure out the amount of either by rearranging the second equation to isolate one variable. I will solve it in two ways
In the first way, I will solve for b
(-t) 6 = b + t (-t)
6 - t = b
Plug this into the first equation and solve for remaining variable
14 = 2(6 - t) +3t
14 = 12 - 2t + 3t
14 = 12 +t
-12 -12
2 = t
6 - 2 = b
b = 4
The second way was to solve for t first
(-b) 6 = b + t (-b)
6 - b = t
14 = 2b + 3(6 - b)
14 = 2b + 18 - 3b
(-18) 14 = 18 -b (-18)
-4/-1 = -b/-1
b = 4
6 - 4 = t
t = 2
It doesn't matter which way you go, they both give you the exact same answer.
Sooo, recap!
1) write equations
2) switch the easier of the two to isolate one variable
3) substitute to find other variable (x2)
4) Find answers! =D
Hope this helps!

Answer:
108
Step-by-step explanation:
add 90+68+94, which will give you 252. subtract that from 360 because it‘s a quadrilateral and you will get 108 :)

Answer:
x=16, y=-4
Step-by-step explanation:
-1(x-y=12)
x+7y=-20
-x+y=-12
x+7y=-20
8y=-32
y=-4
x-4=12
x=16
