Answer:
x = lillies
y = tulips
x + y = 13
1.25x + .90y = 14.85
-1.25x - 1.25y = -16.25
1.25x + .90y = 14.85
-0.35y = -1.40
y = 4 tulips
x + 4 = 13
x = 9 lillies
(9 lillies, 4 tulips)
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
y = 5x-1
Step-by-step explanation:
parallel lines have the same slope.
y intercept: -1
slope: 5
- 1 is the same as +-1
so, y = 5x-1

Answer:
Number of republicans = 207
Number of democrats = 245
Step-by-step explanation:
Let :
Number of republicans = x
Number of democrats = x + 38
Total number of representatives from the two parties = 452
Tge number of representatives from each party can be calculated thus ;
Number of democrats + number of republicans = total number of representatives
(x + 38) + x = 452
x + 38 + x = 452
2x = 452 - 38
2x = 414
x = 414 / 2
x = 207
Number of republicans = 207
Number of democrats = 207 + 38 = 245
Pour 4 times of 124-gallon into a big jug.
Amount of water = 124 x 4 = 496 gallons
Then use the 45-gallon jug to scoop out the water 11 times.
Amount of water scooped out = 11 x 45 = 455 gallons
Water remaining = 496 - 450 = 1 gallon.
