Answer:
13 carnations
Step-by-step explanation:
Assuming you meant 2/5 because 2.5 would mean there are more roses in the vase than there are flowers in the vase, heres how to solve this.
Understanding
Each fraction is referring to "flowers" not "remaining flowers" and as such each time we will be comparing to the total.
2/5 of the total flowers are roses. This is written in words as for every 5 flowers two are roses, which means we will multiply 2 by how many sets of five we have in 30 flowers.
(30/5) x 2 =
(6) x 2 = 12 roses
Though with fractions its written as 30/1*2/5 which is the same as (30 x 2)/5
60/5 = 12 roses
Following this logic for every 6 flowers one is a daisy.
30/1 * 1/6 = (30 x 1)/6 = 30/6 = 5 daisies
Because the rest are carnations we want to subtract the amount of daisies and roses from the total amount of flowers to find the remaining flowers.
30 - 5 - 12 = 13 carnations

Answer:
12a) 4L - 6 = Perimeter
13) 4(6x + 9)
Step-by-step explanation:
for #12: two sides of the rectangle are referred to as L
The other two sides can be referred to as L-3 (these sides are the width, which are 3 less than the length)
Perimeter = sum of all sides; so, 2L + 2(L-3)
P = 2L + 2L - 6
= 4L - 6
Answer:
w = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
distribute 10(w+3)=70
10w + 30 = 70
subtract 30
10w = 40
divide by 10
w = 4
