Answer: 21

Explanation:

Space on book with p lines per page

= 120p

Amount of space needed to give the same space as initial

= 140(p - 3)

= 140p - 420

Hence we can form the equation:

140p - 420 = 120p

20p = 420

A flower shop sells tulips and roses. The price of each tulip is the same and the price of each roses the same. One customer bou
Talja [164]

Answer: it cost a customer $7.25 to buy five tulips and $10.5 to buy six roses.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the cost of 1 tulip.

Let y represent the cost of 1 rose.

The price of each tulip is the same and the price of each roses the same. One customer bought seven tulips and nine roses for $25.90. This means that

7x + 9y = 25.9 - - - - - - - - - - - - - - 1

Another customer bought for four tulips and eight roses for $19.80. This means that

4x + 8y = 19.8- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - 2

Multiplying equation 1 by 4 and equation 2 by 7, it becomes

28x + 36y = 103.6

28x + 56y = 138.6

Subtracting, it becomes

- 20y = - 35

y = - 35/ - 20

y = 1.75

Substituting y = 1.75 into equation 2, it becomes

4x + 8 × 1.75 = 19.8

4x + 14 = 19.8

4x = 19.8 - 14 = 5.8

x = 5.8/4

x = 1.45

The cost of 5 tulips would be

1.45 × 5 = $7.25

The cost of 6 roses would be

1.75 × 6 = $10.5

If a is a rational number and b is a rational number, then the product ab must be
alukav5142 [94]
The best way to answer this is to find counterarguments for each answer to eliminate them as a possibility. ab doesn't have to be an integer, 2.5*3=7.5 . That's also not an imaginary number so that's out. And that's also not an irrational number so that's out too. Only choice left is rational number.

What is the domain of the function y=sqrt x?
vova2212 [387]
Square root is not defined to for negative values. For negative values, the answer of square root is a complex number which is not in Real Domain.

So any such values, for which the expression is not defined are not in the Domian. So the domian of square root of x will be All real numbers greater than or equal to 0. 

This can be expressed as:

[0 , ∞)
or
x ≥ 0
