the wheels function is:

w=2b+u and w=30 so

u+2b=30

Answer:

The correct option is:

B. u + 2b = 30

Step-by-step explanation:

The owner of a bike shop sells unicycles and bicycles and keeps inventory by counting seats and wheels. One day, she counts 21 seats and 30 wheels.

u is the number of unicycles and b is the number of bicycles.

There are total 21 seats

⇒  u+b=21

unicycle has 1 wheel and bicycle has 2 and total there are 30 wheels

⇒ u+2b=30

Hence, the correct option is:

B. u + 2b = 30
