I believe the answer is 0.25
Answer:
8
Step-by-step explanation:
If the gardener bought more white than pink, that could mean he could have bought 12 white and one pink, 11 white and 2 pink, 10 white and 3 pink, 9 white and 4 pink, 8 white and 5 pink, or 7 white and 6 pink.
If you plug in the numbers, for example with 7 and 6, that would equal $53, which is not correct. Continue to do this with all of the answers.
With 8 white roses and 5 pink roses, this would equal $55 (40+15), which is the answer.
Answer:
4 buses
Step-by-step explanation:
There are 173 basketball fans
one bus can hold 46 fans
Hence the number of buses needed can be calculated as follows
= 173/46
= 3.76
= 4
Hence 4 buses are needed
You haven't shared "the given value of x," or, if you have, you haven't drawn attention to it.
Just suppose we were to choose x = 4 as a possible solution and then try to find a value of the parameter k that would make x = 4 an actual solution.
2(4) + 4k - 9 = (4)(4) - (4) + 1
Then 8 + 4k - 9 = 16 - 4 + 1, or 4k - 1 = 13. Then 4k = 14, and k = 14/4, or (after reduction) k = 7/2
If the parameter k equals 7/2, then x = 4 is a solution to the given equation.
To check this out further, start with the proposed solution x = 5 and find k.
