Answer:

The gardeners should buy 45 white hydrangeas and 104 pink hydrangeas.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the gardeners at Middleton Place Gardens have to buy x numbers of white hydrangeas and y number of pink hydrangeas.

So, x + y = 41 {Given} ........... (1)

Again, for another flower bed they want to plant 108 hydrangeas, where the number of white ones is 2 times that of Middleton Place Gardens and the number of pink ones is 3 times that of Middleton Place Gardens.

So, 2x + 3y = 108 ........ (2)

Now, solving equations (1) and (2) we get,

3y - 2y = 108 - 82 = 26

⇒ y = 26

And from equation (1) we get,

x = 41 - 26 = 15.

So, the total number of white hydrangeas the gardeners have to buy is (x + 2x) = 3x = 3 × 15 = 45.

And the total number of pink hydrangeas the gardeners have to buy is (y + 3y) = 4y = 4 × 26 = 104. (Answer)

Answer:

TRUE

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given 2 triangles, ∆ABC and ∆DEF.

For the two trinagles to be considered similar, both must have their set of corresponding angles congruent to each other. That is, their corresponding angles are equal.

From the information given, the following are the set of corresponding angles:

<B = <E = 31°

<B = <D = 90°

<C = <F = 59° [180 - (90+31)]

The corresponding angles of both triangles are congruent. Therefore, it is guaranteed that ∆ABC is similar to ∆DEF (∆ABC ~ DEF).
