Q. The owner of a bicycle shop reported his inventory of bicycles and tricycles in an unusual way. He said he counted 126 wheels and 108 pedals. How many bikes and trikes does he have?
Asked by Independent and Strong - Sun Feb 14 11:59:00 2010 - - 4 Answers - 0 Comments

A. If we use b as the number of bikes and t and the number by trikes then using his count we can create the system of equations 2b + 3t = 126 <-- each bike has 2 wheels, and each trike 3 2b + 2t = 108 <-- both have 2 pedals each. Solve that system and you'll get the number of bikes and trikes, the elimination method works fantastically here.

A. My cousin gave me one when his company quit using them for messages and light transport within their plant. But he gave it to me on condition that I buy a helmet and never ride without it. I picked up a pretty shiny blue one at Goodwill for not much. They are easy to ride. They do take some getting used to though. You need to practice in your driveway or other safe place before you take it on the road. The reason they seem awkward at first is because anyone who knows how to ride a bicycle will notice the very different balance feel especially in the turns. I too have bad knees and my rheumatologist (arthritis doctor) has told me not to ride it as it puts too much strain on my knees (don't always do what I'm told). So you may want to… [cont.]

And whoever commits suicide with piece of iron will be punished with the same piece of iron in the Hell Fire."

Should they put warning labels on tricycles?
Q. Everything a child could possibly get hurt from has a warning, but what about tricycles when it comes to adults? Do they not realize how many people hurt themselves on tricycles? example; the tricycle imploding upon mounting? or when you end up rolling down a hill? and maybe even suffocation. it's so easy to get stuck.

A. The step is actually called a bicycle (unless its a different step to what i do??) They are tricky at first i am having trouble with hitting my bum 3 times. Practicing between 2 chairs helps get used to the movement. And make sure one leg is not lazy because it makes it look sloppy!! Make sure both feet are pointed, high on your toes and you are hitting your bum. ive looked on youtube and at about 36seconds there is a bicycle on this video!! i'm not quite sure what a double butt is? would you be able to describe it as i may just not call it the same thing! is it like doing the bicycle but only hitting your bum twice?? hope this helps Charlotte x-x-x-x

Why are tricycles only designed for little kids?
Q. tricycles are a great invention and they should be used by commuting adults and in sports too I don't understand why they are only designed for children because the ones I saw in the store are all pink and 2 feet high
Asked by Adidas - Thu Dec 31 16:03:58 2009 - - 6 Answers - 0 Comments

A. They are not only designed for children. Adult trikes are available if you know where too look. They basically come in two types, The Tadpole Trike version and the Delta Trike and they are also available in a Tandem version. (photos below are Tadpole Version) Check these two sites: Catrike and Terra Trike and there are other manufacturer's such as Greenspeed, Trice, Sun and more that specialize in Trikes. These Trikes can be used for Commuting, Touring and weekend Group Rides. I commuted on a Tadpole trike for years and did it at night and it's the only way to ride. Depending on the rider the Tadpole trike can average between 13 and 20 mph the Delta is not as fast, most Delta riders average about 11 to 13 mph. You mentioned that the… [cont.]

Asked by ware_dunk - Fri Sep 14 16:28:00 2007 - - 5 Answers - 0 Comments

A. Can't say I've any any real experience of Tricycles (except as a kid!) However; In my early twenties, I did gain an ACU racing licence as a passenger (or Monkey, as they're called) on an outfit.(powered by a 250cc Lambretta engine). I always wondered if you could get one of those things 'street-legal' - 'cos boy do they shift and corner fast - scarey stuff. The non-powered rear wheel was offset from the powered wheel though, and if you dont consider doing something similar you could end up with severe handling problems (unless you start going into differential axles,etc) But now your leading into a different topic - for a different forum!!! Best of luck though mate.

cliff has 3 kinds of cycles in his shop- unicycles, tricycles, and bicycles. question in the details.?
Q. There are a total of 150 wheels and 70 seats. There are twice as many bicycles as tricycles. how many of each kind are in his shop. show your work and it would be best if you use simutaneous equation. thanks so much
Asked by HELP! - Fri Jan 4 22:55:59 2008 - - 5 Answers - 0 Comments

A. Let U, T, and B be the number of unicycles, tricycles, and bicycles in the shop. 150 = U + 3T + 2B 70 = U + T + B 2T = B There are your three simultaneous equations in three unknowns. Using the third equation, substitute 2T for B in the first two equations. You now have two equations in two unknowns. Select either equation, isolate either T or U, and substitute that expression into the other equation. Solve for the value of the single variable, then work your way back to get the others.

A man is arranging his bikes and tricycles....?
Q. If there are 50 wheels and 40 pedals, how many bikes and tricycles are there? Please give formula also. Please help much help needed.
Asked by Depressed - Sun Jul 1 19:29:56 2007 - - 3 Answers - 0 Comments

A. Unfortunately, I don't think there is a formula to solve this one as it is what we call a "guess and check" problem in our 4th grade math text! SImply put, you try out different answers until you find the correct one. However, if you think logically, there are the same number of pedals on both bicycles and tricycles-2. So 40 divided by 2 =20 cycles ( of one kind or the other!) If all 20 were bikes, that would account for only40 wheels(20x2=40), but if 10 of those were trikes (10x3=30) and 10 were bikes (10x2=20) that would equal 50 wheels. So your answer is 10 trikes and 10 bikes.
