Richie spent $120 on 12 rose bushes and 2 gardenias, while Jim spent it $150 on 10 rose bushes and 10 gardenias. What is the cos
Basile [38]
With the given information, we can create several equations:

120 = 12x + 2y
150 = 10x + 10y

With x being the number of rose bushes, and y being the number of gardenias.

To find the values of the variables, we can use two methods: Substitution or Elimination

For this case, let us use elimination. To begin, let's be clear that we are going to be adding these equations together. Therefore, in order to get the value of one variable, we must cancel one of them out - it could be x or y, it doesn't matter which one you decide to cancel out. Let's cancel the x out:

We first need to multiply the equations by numbers that would cause the x's to cancel out - and this can be done as follows:

-10(120 = 12x + 2y)
 12(150 = 10x + 10y) => Notice how one of these is negative

Multiply out:

    -1200 = -120x - 20y
 +  1800 =  120x + 120y          => Add these two equations together
---------------------------------
600 = 100y

Now we can solve for y:

y = 6

With this value of y known, we can then pick an equation from the beginning of the question, and plug y in to solve for x:

120 = 12x + 2y    =>    120 = 12x + 2(6)

Now we can solve for x:

120 = 12x + 12    =>     108 = 12x

x = 9

So now we know that x = 9, and y = 6.

With rose bushes being x, we now know that the cost of 1 rose bush is $9.
With gardenias being y, we now know that the cost of 1 gardenia is $6.

The "core" inflation rate is typically defined as the change in consumer prices for all goods included in the CPI basket except
Ganezh [65]

Answer:

Higher

Step-by-step explanation:

1) In Macroeconomics, The core inflation rate does not include food and energy since these categories are way more volatile, due to oil and season matters. And statistically this measure looks for more robust items, to compose the core inflation in a more accurate way. The Consumer Prices Index (CPI) is the metric used for the cost of living.

Another Index, used by the Fed is the PCE, for the goods and services consumed by the US residents.

So, the Core inflation is based on CPI and PCE, <em>Personal Consumption Expenditure</em> therefore the inflation rate for the past year was higher than 4%, for it is not solely based on CPI index.

Bad Investment After Mrs. Fisher lost 9% of her investment, she had $22,750. What was Mrs. Fisher's original investment?​
stira [4]

Answer:

$2500

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

The lost percentage = 9%

Amount she had = $22,750

We need to find Mrs. Fisher's original investment.

As she had lost 9%, it means she will remain with 91% of her investment. Let the original investment is x.

So,

91\%\ of \ x=22,750\\\\\dfrac{91}{100}x=22,750\\\\x=\dfrac{22,750\times 100}{91}\\\\x=\$25000

So, her original investment is equal to $25000.
