Question

In a certain rental shop, they have 63 vehicles. They allow you to rent bicycles and tricycles free for the first hour.If they had 149 tires in all, how many bicycles and tricycles do they have?

Answer 1

There Are 40 Bicycles And 23 Tricycles

Explanation:

Let, x be bicycles and y be tricycles

Condition 1;

: x + y= 63

: x =63-y

Condition 2;

Number Of Tires=149

:2x + 3y =149 [2x=Two Tires Of Bicycle And

3y=Three Tires Of Tricycle]

:x = 149-3y/2

Combination 1 & 2;

63-y = 149-3y/2

126-2y = 149-3y

y=23

x = 63-23

=40
