Answer: the cost of each bush is $15
the cost of each flower is $2
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the cost of each bush.
Let y represent the cost of each flower.
Portia bought 12 bushes and 30 flowers for $240 to plant in her yard. This is expressed as
12x + 30y = 240- - - - - - - - - - -1
Later, she realized she did not have enough plants and bought 7 more bushes and 10 more flowers for $125. This is expressed as
7x + 10y = 125- - - - - - - - - - -2
Multiplying equation 1 by 7 and equation 2 by 12, it becomes
84x + 210y = 1680
84x + 120y = 1500
Subtracting, it becomes
90y = 180
y = 180/90
y = 2
Substituting y = 2 into equation 1, it becomes
12x + 30 × 2 = 240
12x + 60 = 240
12x = 240 - 60 = 180
x = 180/12
x = 15
Answer:
y = 40
Step-by-step explanation:
Lets make an equation to represent the sum of the angles:
We know that the sum of angles of triangles equals 180 degrees. So based on this knowledge, the equation is :
2y + y + 10 + 50 = 180
Now we simplify:
2y + y = 3y
10 + 50 = 60
So our new equation is 3y + 60 = 180
Now all we have to do is simplify:
3y + 60 = 180
3y + 60 -60 = 180 - 60
3y = 120
3y / 3 = 120 / 3
y = 40
So the answer is 40 hope this helped
Answer:(6,-1)
Explanation:The slope of the line can be calculated using the following formula:
slope =
We are given that:slope = -0.75
point (x1,y1) is (-2,5)
We will use each of the given points to calculate the corresponding slope, then compare the calculated slope with the given one.
For point (6,-1):slope =

= -0.75 ........> accepted choice
For point (2,8):slope =

= 0.75 ........> rejected choice
For point (-5,1):slope =

= 4/3 ........> rejected choice
For point (1,1):slope =

= -4/3 ........> rejected choice
Therefore, the first option is the only correct one.
Hope this helps :)
