Problem

Euler's formula states that for a convex polyhedron with $V\,$ vertices, $E\,$ edges, and $F\,$ faces, $V-E+F=2\,$. A particular convex polyhedron has 32 faces, each of which is either a triangle or a pentagon. At each of its $V\,$ vertices, $T\,$ triangular faces and $P^{}_{}$ pentagonal faces meet. What is the value of $100P+10+V\,$?
