Let \( x \) represent the number of bike rentals, and let \( y \) represent the number of skate rentals.

The system of linear equations representing the situation is:

1. \( x + y = 20 \)
2. \( 25x + 20y = 455 \)

Asked by kaeliebear6250

Answer (2)

25x+20y=455 x+y=20
20x+20y=400 -25x-20y=-455 -5x=-55 x=11 11+y=20 y=9
Solved it as well, sorry if I wasn't supposed to

The solution to the system of equations shows that there are 11 bicycle rentals and 9 in-line skate rentals. This is verified by substituting these values back into the original equations. Both equations hold true with these values.
