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:
174
Step-by-step explanation:
You should look at the mean and do this:
5*28 so now you know all the ages which is 140 now you do 140/29 and you get 4.8....... so you can see that the answer is 174

Answer:
15 people
Step-by-step explanation:
let x=total # of people on the team
80%=12
80/100=12/x
cross multiply
80x=1200
division property of equality (divide both sides by 80)
x=15
There are 15 people on the team.
G^2+2=0,
g^2=-2
g= sqrt-2, not possible.
3g+1=0
3g=-1
g=-1/3
9 cannot be equal to zero for the last one.
