Answer:
Cost of 1 rose bush = x = $5
Cost of 1 geraniums = y = $2
Step-by-step explanation:
DeShawn and Mike each improved their yards by planting rose bushes and geraniums. They bought their supplies from the same store.
Let us represent:
Cost of 1 rose bush = x
Cost of 1 geraniums = y
DeShawn spent $13 on 1 rose bush and 4 geraniums.
x + 4y = 13..... Equation 1
x = 13 - 4y
Mike spent $56 on 10 rose bushes and 3 geraniums.
10x + 3y = 56....... Equation 2
We substitute 13 - 4y for x in Equation 2
10(13 - 4y) + 3y = 56
130 - 40y + 3y = 56
Collect like terms
- 40y + 3y = 56 - 130
-37y = -74
y = -74/37
y = $2
Solving for x
x = 13 - 4y
x = _13 - 4 × $2
x = $13 - $8
x = $5
Therefore,
Cost of 1 rose bush = x = $5
Cost of 1 geraniums = y = $2

Answer: (-5, 2)</h3>
Explanation:
We multiply the y coordinate by -1/3 because of the notation (-1/3)*f(x). Recall that y = f(x). The x coordinate stays the same.
Answer: Density = 1,282.26 kg/m^3
Step-by-step explanation:
Density = 80 lb/ft^3
We know that:
1lb = 0.4536 kg.
1ft^3 = 0.0283 m^3
then we can write:
1 = (0.4536kg)/(0.0283 m^3)*(1ft^3/lb)
we can multiply our equation by this, and it wont be affected, then we have:
Density = 80 lb/ft^3 = 80 lb/ft^3 (0.4536kg)/(0.0283 m^3)*(1ft^3/lb)
Density = 1,282.26 kg/m^3
1/4 because you just divde the numerator and the denominator by 12
Answer:
27
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the average change in elevation, you have to make it a unit rate. So we find that 378/14=27
