Answer:
x = 6
Step-by-step explanation:
7x = 42
Divide both sides by 7
x = 6
Divide them both by three and you will get your answer, which is 5/24
Answer:
See explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the number of simple arrangements and y be the number of grand arrangements.
1. The florist makes at least twice as many of the simple arrangements as the grand arrangements, so

2. A florist can make a grand arrangement in 18 minutes
hour, then he can make y arrangements in
hours.
A florist can make a simple arrangement in 10 minutes
hour, so he can make x arrangements in
hours.
The florist can work only 40 hours per week, then

3. The profit on the simple arrangement is $10, then the profit on x simple arrangements is $10x.
The profit on the grand arrangement is $25, then the profit on y grand arrangements is $25y.
Total profit: $(10x+25y)
Plot first two inequalities and find the point where the profit is maximum. This point is point of intersection of lines
and 
But this point has not integer coordinates. The nearest point with two integer coordinates is (126,63), then the maximum profit is

Answer:
The fifth line contains the error.
Step-by-step explanation:
Line 1 is the equation.
Lines 2, 3, and 4 are correct.
The error is in the 5th line.
The square root of a negative number is not a real number, so if this problem is solved only with real numbers, there is no solution.
If imaginary numbers are allowed, then the last line should read:
