X ➡ cars 4 wheels
y ➡ motorcycles 2 wheels

4x +2y = 98

x + y = 30

Car normally has 4 wheeles
motorcycles normall have 2 wheels

c=cars
m=motorcycles

4c+2m=98
c+m=30

multiply second equation by -2 and add to the original equaiton

-2c-2m=-60
4c+2m=98 +
2c+0m=38


2c=38
divide 2
c=19
sub

c+m=30
19+m=30
m=11


11 motorcycles
19 cars

Given the median 24 and trapezoid MNOP what is the value of x
masha68 [24]
1. Given the bases a and b of a trapezoid, the length of the median m can be found by the formula m= \frac{a+b}{2}

2. MP and NO are the bases so applying the above formula: 

24= \frac{(x+8)+(5x+4)}{2}

48= 6x+12

6x=36

x=6

Check the picture for the proof of the theorem m=(a+b)/2
