At Irv's Cycle Rental Shop, Irv renst all knids of cycles: unicyles, tandem bikes, regualr bikes, and even tricycles for little kids. He parks all the cycles in front of the shop with a helmet for each rider strapped to the cycles. This morninf Irv counted 57 helments and 115 wheels parked in front of his store. He knows he has an equal number of unicycles and tandem bikes. He also knows that he has 32 regular bikes. How many unicycle, tandem bikes, and tricycles does Irv have?

Answer 1

Buddy i already solved this quet

Answer 2

yeah but u did it wrong u did not read the directions ....srry

Answer 3

u said there are 115 bikes...but its 115 wheels

Answer 4

I shave spend 30 minutes on my daily activities for four weeks. What is the percentage of 7.5?

Answer 5

To solve this problem, we can use a system of equations. Let's assign variables to the unknown quantities:

Let's represent the number of unicycles as U, number of tandem bikes as T, and number of tricycles as C.

From the given information, we can establish the following equations:

1) U + T + C = the total number of cycles
2) U = T (since Irv has an equal number of unicycles and tandem bikes)
3) T + C = the total number of cycles excluding the regular bikes (since Irv has 32 regular bikes)

We also know that each cycle has 1 helmet and the total number of wheels parked is 115.

So, we can set up two more equations:

4) U + T + C + 32 = 57 (since there are 57 helmets)
5) U + 2T + 3C + 32 = 115 (since each unicycle has 1 wheel, each tandem bike has 2 wheels, and each tricycle has 3 wheels)

Now, let's solve the system of equations:

From equation 2, we can substitute U for T in equations 1 and 3:

1) T + T + C = the total number of cycles
2) T = T

Combine like terms:

2T + C = the total number of cycles

Now substitute the value of the total number of cycles from equation 3 into equation 1:

T + (32 - T) = the total number of cycles

32 = the total number of cycles

From equation 4, we can subtract 32 from both sides to isolate the variables:

2T + C = 0

Now, substitute the value of the total number of cycles into equation 5:

T + 2T + 3C + 32 = 115

Combine like terms:

3T + 3C = 83

Rearrange the equation:

T + C = 27

Now, we have two equations:

2T + C = 0 (equation 1)
T + C = 27 (equation 2)

We can solve this system of equations using substitution or elimination method.

Let's use substitution to solve:

From equation 2, we can express C in terms of T:

C = 27 - T

Substitute C in equation 1:

2T + (27 - T) = 0

Combine like terms:

T + 27 = 0

Subtract 27 from both sides:

T = -27

Since it does not make sense to have a negative number of tandem bikes, this means there are no tandem bikes in this case.

So, the solution is: Irv has 0 unicycles, 0 tandem bikes, and 27 tricycles.

Please note that this is just one possible solution. If you have any additional information or assumptions, please let me know, and I can adjust the solution accordingly.
