Question

i just need the work for 11 & 12. i know the answer for 11 is (16,4) and 12 is (5,7) but i don’t know how to work it out to get those answers. (solving a system of linear equations)

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:let x be the number of bicycles,

let y be the number of tricycles

given x+y=20→equation 1

also given 2x+3y=44→equation 2

from eq 1, y=20-x

substitudin ineq 2

2x+3(20-x)=44

2x+60-3x=44

60-x=44

-x=44-60

=-16

x=+16

then y=20-16=4

no of bicycles=16

no of tricycles=4

hope this helps
