Answer: the number of roses sold is 69 while number of tulips is 37
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of roses that the flower shop sold.
Let y represent the number of tulips that the flower shop sold.
The number of roses sold was 5 less than twice the number of tulips sold. This means that
x = 2y - 5 - - -- -- - - - - - ;1
If the shop sold 106 flowers in total, it means that
x + y = 106
Substituting x = 106 - y into equation 1, it becomes
106 - y = 2y - 5
3y = 106 + 5 = 111
y = 111/3 = 37
x = 106 - y = 106 - 37
x = 69
You simplify a fraction by finding it's greatest common factor. A greatest common factor is what both numbers are divisible by. If they can both be divided by two, then you've simplified them a little bit. Keep going until you can't find a common number that can be divided by the two, and you've got your simplified fraction. For example, 10/5 = 1/2 since both 10 and 5 is divisible by 5.
SA = 2lw + 2lh + 2hw
SA = 2(15)(2) + 2(15)(6) + 2(6)(2)
SA = 60 + 180 + 24
SA = 264
