Answer: it cost a customer $7.25 to buy five tulips and $10.5 to buy six roses.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the cost of 1 tulip.
Let y represent the cost of 1 rose.
The price of each tulip is the same and the price of each roses the same. One customer bought seven tulips and nine roses for $25.90. This means that
7x + 9y = 25.9 - - - - - - - - - - - - - - 1
Another customer bought for four tulips and eight roses for $19.80. This means that
4x + 8y = 19.8- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - 2
Multiplying equation 1 by 4 and equation 2 by 7, it becomes
28x + 36y = 103.6
28x + 56y = 138.6
Subtracting, it becomes
- 20y = - 35
y = - 35/ - 20
y = 1.75
Substituting y = 1.75 into equation 2, it becomes
4x + 8 × 1.75 = 19.8
4x + 14 = 19.8
4x = 19.8 - 14 = 5.8
x = 5.8/4
x = 1.45
The cost of 5 tulips would be
1.45 × 5 = $7.25
The cost of 6 roses would be
1.75 × 6 = $10.5
Answer:
3/40
Step-by-step explanation:
So we look for all the multiples of 13 not over 40
There are 3 which are; 13, 26, 39
So it will be 3/40
It will be smaller than 1/4.
The reason being that 7/8 is a fraction which is less than 1, and that it can only be greater than 1/4 when the multiplying number, is a number which is greater than 1.
Note: When a positive number is multiplied by a number which is less than 1, it makes the positive number to be smaller and
When a positive number is multiplied by a number which is greater than 1, it makes the positive number to be bigger.
Answer:
<h2><u><em>
D</em></u></h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
You can first reduce this fraction by dividing both the numerator and denominator by the Greatest Common Factor of 549 and 999. I know that
61/111
is the same as
61÷111
Then using
Long Division for 61 divided by 111
and rounding to a Max of 4 Decimal Places gives me
=0.5495/.5495
<h3>then move the decimal point a digit to the <u><em>
RIGHT!!!!</em></u></h3>
