The <em>correct answer</em> is:
12 bouquets, each having 6 red roses, 5 pink roses, and 4 yellow roses.
Explanation:
To find the number of bouquets we can make, we find the GCF (greatest common factor) of the three numbers, 72, 60 and 48. To do this, we find the prime factorization of each:
We look for factors that all 3 numbers have in common. These factors are 2, 2 and 3; 2(2)(3)=12, so we can make 12 bouquets.
72/12 = 6; this means we use 6 red roses in each bouquet.
60/12 = 5; this means we use 5 pink roses in each bouquet.
48/12 = 4; this means we use 4 yellow roses in each bouquet.
Step-by-step explanation:
In this case, you input the value of y (y = 6) into the equation ( 2.5(y-x)= 0)
2.5(6-x) = 0
Open the bracket,
(2.5×6)-2.5x= 0
Collect like terms.
2.5x= 2.5×6
Divide both sides by the coefficient of x (2.5)
x = 6
So,
x= 6 is true.
.
Substituting 6 for x in the equation,
2.5(6-6)= 0
2.5•0 = 0
0= 0
Which is also true.
Hello there!
The expression:48x+ 56xy
We know we can't add them together since 56 is being multiplied by y. We aren't going to combine 48x and 56xy. They will remain separate terms.
We know that "C" and "D" are not the answers.
However, we can check the following expressions to see if they match the given expression.
8x(6+7y)= 8x*6= 48x 8x*7y= 56xy <=== "A" is correct
"A" is the correct answer.
I hope this helps!
