There will be 72 blue roses in all. Then she has 84 red roses in her initial bouquet.

<h3>What is the linear system?</h3>

A linear system is one in which the parameter in the equation has a degree of one. It might have one, two, or even more variables.

Mrs Fernandez has a total of 156 red and blue roses.

After selling the same number of red and blue roses.

She had 1/3 of the number of red roses and 2/9 of the number of blue roses left.

Let x be the number of red rose and y be the number of blue roses.

Then the equation will be

x + y = 156  ...1

2x/3 = 7y/9

   6x = 7y ...2

By solving the equations 1 and 2, we have

x = 84 and y = 72

Then the number of red roses that she have at first is 84.

More about the linear system link is given below.

At a restaurant you only have 20 dollars to spend on dinner. in addition to the cost of the meal you must pay only 5% sales tax
aev [14]
Alright so to do this you need some basic algebra
you have to pay an extra 20% of whatever you buy
thus we can make the following equation
.2x+x=20  (since 20 is the amount of money you have)
combining the like terms,
1.2x=20
and finally, dividing both sides by 1.2
x=$16.67
don't forget to check!
.05*16.67=.83 (sales tax makes the total $17.5)
.15*16.67=2.5 (tip makes the total $20)
whaddya you know, it works!
most expensive item you can buy will cost $16.67
hope this helped!
