Answer:

They sold

20 Roses and 20 Carnations

Step-by-step explanation:

The total sales of 40 flowers is $100 not $10 as in the question

Roses=$3

Carnations=$2

Total flowers sold=40

Total sales=$10

Let Roses=r

Carnations=c

c+r=40. (1)

3r+2c=100 (2)

From (1)

c=40-r

Substitute c=40-r into (2)

3r+2c=100

3r+2(40-r)=100

3r+80-2r=10

r=100-80

r=20

Substitute r=20 into (1)

c+r=40

c+20=40

c=40-20

=20

c=20

r=20

Check:

3r+2c=100

3(20)+2(20)=100

60+40=100

100=100

How do you graph y=-3x+2 and -3x-y=-2 (change into slope intercept form first) then check your answer. The picture is how the fo
Leni [432]
Y=-3x+2:
Already in slope intercept form
Graph by plotting a point on (0,2)
Then move 3 points up and 1 to the right and plot the point and keep doing that a couple times

-3x-y=-2:
Add -3x on both sides
The result would be
-y=3x-2
Divide everything by negative 1
Y=-3x+2

Both equations are the same so they are the same line
