Answer:

  2 petunias, 4 carnations, 5 pansies

Step-by-step explanation:

  • 8 = 4×2
  • 16 = 4×4
  • 20 = 4×5

The greatest common divisor of the numbers of flowers is 4, so we expect the problem is saying Luis will prepare this many flower pots.

Then in each pot, Luis will have ...

  • 2 petunias
  • 4 carnations
  • 5 pansies

Jet001 [13]

Answer:

42 Dimes, 10 Nickels.

Step-by-step explanation:

Dimes are worth $0.10, nickels are worth $0.05.

If D = number of dimes, and N = number of nickels, then the following equations are true:

0.10D + 0.05N = 4.70

D + N = 52

Next, let's multiply the first equation by 10 so that we can subtract the second one from it.

D + 0.50N = 47

(-) D + N = 52

Subtracting the second equation from the first one gives:

-0.5N = -5

-0.5N/-0.5 = -5/-0.5

N = 10

Finally, substitute N in the original second equation to find D.

D + 10 = 52

D + 10 - 10 = 52 - 10

D = 42

docker41 [41]
Hello! So Sophia cuts two pieces of ribbon that are different lengths and lines them up together. To find the total length of the two ribbons, let's add them up. Because there is no digit in the thousandths place, we'll fill that in with a zero. Now, let's add up the numbers. 9.281 + 7.740 = 17.021. There. The total length of the ribbons is 17.021 cm long.

Since she bought 4 bags of 50 beads and 3 bags of 200 beads you only need to use two operations: multiply and add. 4 x 50 is 200 3 x 200 is 600 600 + 200 = 800 Mariah purchase 800 beads in total.
