Answer:

6 tulips

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we have to simply the ratio. The ratio for pansies to tulips would be 15:18, then simplifying it would make it 5:6 because the common factor is 3. 15 divided by 3 is 5 and 18 divided by 3 is 6. If you add 5 more pansies, it would equal 20 in total. Add 6 tulips because 6 plus 18 is 24. 20 divided by 4 is 5 and 24 divided by 4 is 6. That gives us a ratio of 5:6, which is the same from before. Therefore, you should add 6 tulips if 5 more pansies were added.

A car and a bus set out at 2 p.M. From the same point, headed in the same direction. The speed of the car is 30mph slower than t
Blizzard [7]

Answer:

Car = 10 miles/hour

Bus = 20 miles/hour

Step-by-step explanation:

Here,

Let, the value of the speed of the bus = X

the value of the speed of the car = 2X - 30 (As the speed of the car is 30mph slower than twice)

According to the question,

2X - 20 = 2*(2x-30)

or, 2X - 20 = 4X-60

or, 2X = 40

x = 20

Therefore, the speed of the bus, x = 20 miles/hour

So, the speed of the car is (2*20-30) mph = (40 - 30) mph = 10 miles/hour.
