and

, or as a rounded decimal 85.28 and 85.28.
To find the smallest possible sum of roots for any product, the answer is always whatever numbers are closest together. This fact can be derived by the fact that the greatest area we can enclose with a given length is a perfect square. So we can take the square root of 7272 and use that, since they will be exactly the same number.
If you are looking for whole numbers, you would have to go up or down until you find a factor of 7272 closest to the square root. In this case that would be 72 and 101.
Answer:
A lily costs $7 and a geranium $4.
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question, we can write two equations. let the number of lilies be l and the number of geraniums be g, then:
5
g
+
4
l
=
48
4
g
+
6
l
=
58
Multiply the first equation by 4 and the second by 5, the number of lilies in the other gives:
20
g
+
16
l
=
192
20
g
+
30
l
=
290
Subtract the first equation from the second gives:
14
l
=
98 which dividing by 14 gives l
=
7
Substituting the value l
=
7 in the first equation gives:
5
g
+
28
=
48
Subtract 20 from both sides gives:
5
g
=
20 divide by 5 gives g
=
4
So, a lily costs $7 and a geranium costs $4.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The first choice is correct
The rate is 20 per dog, thus we get the equation:
c= 20d
However the first dog is free, so the equation becomes
c = 20(d - 1)
And he also has a walking fee of 85 dollars and thus the equation becomes
c= 85 + 20(d-1)
