There are a total of 127 cars and trucks on a lot If there are four more than twice the number of trucks than cars how many cars and trucks are on the lot?

Let the number of cars be ( c ) and the number of trucks be ( t ). According to the problem, we have the equations ( c + t = 127 ) and ( t = 2c + 4 ). Substituting the second equation into the first gives ( c + (2c + 4) = 127 ), which simplifies to ( 3c + 4 = 127 ). Solving for ( c ), we find ( c = 41 ) and consequently ( t = 2(41) + 4 = 86 ). Therefore, there are 41 cars and 86 trucks on the lot.
