sammy's bicycle and tricycles. clarence went to Sammy's and counted 37 sets of handlebars and 95 wheels. How many bicycles and t
Trava [24]

Answer:

16 bicycles and 21 tricycles

Step-by-step explanation:

Both bicycles and tricycles have 1 set of handlebars. Bicycles have 2 wheels while tricycles have 3.

Using this information, set up a system of equations, where b is the number of bicycles and t is the number of tricycles:

b + t = 37

2b + 3t = 95

Solve by elimination by multiplying the top equation by -2:

-2b - 2t = -74

2b + 3t = 95

t = 21

Then, plug in 21 as t into one of the equations:

b + t = 37

b + 21 = 37

b = 16

So, there are 16 bicycles and 21 tricycles

(3)-2<br> Evaluate exponent
olga nikolaevna [1]

Answer:

3^{-2} = \dfrac{1}{9}

Step-by-step explanation:

Definition of negative exponent:

a^{-n} = \dfrac{1}{a^n}

In our case, a = 3 and -n = -2.

3^{-2} = \dfrac{1}{3^2}

Now we just evaluate the power in the denominator.

3^{-2} = \dfrac{1}{3^2} = \dfrac{1}{9}
