Answer:
Question 1: p=4 b=5 n=1.5
Question 2:Y=-3x+2
Step-by-step explanation:
i think i did this in arush
There are 16 boxes total, and 45 wheels total.
we know that each bicycle/tricycle is in it's own box.
i'm going to use the variable "b" for bicycle and "t" for tricycle
b + t = 16
(because b is the amount of bicycles and t is the amount of tricycles)
now we know that there are 45 wheels total.
there are 2 wheels for a bicycle and 3 wheels for a tricycle
2b + 3t = 45
now we have a system of equations
b + t = 16
2b + 3t = 45
You can solve this multiple ways, but I'm going to use substitution.
b + t = 16 can also be written as b = 16 - t (if you subtract both sides by t)
then we can substitute this b = 16 - t into the other equations
2(16 - t) + 3t = 45
32 - 2t + 3t = 45
32 + t = 45
t = 13
now you can plug that back into the original equations
b + 13 = 16
b = 3
2b + 3(13) = 45
2b + 39 = 45
2b = 6
b = 3

Given the equation: (km / 3) - 2x = 4, it is essential to isolate x to obtain the expression to solve it. This is done below:
(km / 3<span>) - 2x = 4
</span>
Adding 2x to both sides:
(km / 3<span>) - 2x + 2x = 4 + 2x
</span>(km / 3<span>) = 4 + 2x
</span>
Subtracting 4 from both sides:
(km / 3<span>) - 4 = 4 + 2x - 4
</span>(km / 3<span>) - 4 = 2x
</span>
Dividing 2 from both sides:
[(km / 3<span>) - 4] /2 = 2x /2
</span>[(km / 3<span>) - 4] /2 = x
</span>x = (km / 6) - 2
It equals 3/8. this is because 3/4 = 6/8. 6/8 -3/8 = 3/8
