Answer:

<u>The total number of flowers in Mrs. Garcia's garden is</u><u> 25.</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of lilies to daisies is 3:2 and there are 15 lilies. We need to compute the number of daisies first and then add both the number of daisies and lilies to compute the total number of flowers. Using the ratio method:

Lilies : Daisies

  3    :     2

  15   :    x

By cross multiplying we get:

3x = 15*2

3x = 30

x = 10

Hence, the total number of flowers in the garden are:

10 + 15 = 25

<u>The total number of flowers in Mrs. Garcia's garden is 25.</u>

Answer:

25

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the number of lilies = 15

Given ratio = 3:2

Let the total number of flowers be X

Let the number of daisies be 'a'

3/2 = 15/a

3×a = 2×15

3a = 30

a = 30/3

a = 10

X = number of lilies + number of daisies

X = 15 + 10

X = 25

Which equations are true for x = –2 and x = 2? Select two options
brilliants [131]

Answer:

x^2 – 4 = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

When x = - 2,

x^2 - 4 = 0

( - 2 )^2 - 4 = 0

4 - 4 = 0

When x = 2,

x^2 - 4 = 0

2^2 - 4 = 0

4 - 4 = 0

Find the slope of the line passing through the points (-9. -6) and (-4, 5)
Dmitrij [34]

Answer:

11/5 or 2.2

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate the slope of a line, identify two points on that line, and use the slope formula:

y2 - y1/x2 - x1

(5) - (-6)/ (-4) - (-9)

(5) - (-6) = 11

(-4) - (-9) = 5

11/5 = 2.2

There are 9 yellow and 4 purple balls in a bag. If you randomly choose balls one at a time, with replacement, what is the probab
anygoal [31]
9+4 = 13 total balls

1st pick would be 9/13 probability of picking yellow

2nd pick would be 4/13 probability

3rd pick would be 4/13 probability

 total probability : 9/13 * 4/13 * 4/13 = 144/2197

Total these measurements. Your answer should indicate the proper accuracy.
Ahat [919]
One way of calculating decimal sum is by using partition

8.3 = 8 + 0.3
5.2 = 5 + 0.2
4.36 = 4 + 0.3 + 0.06
42.1 = 42 + 0.1
86.0 = 86

Add the units together: 8 + 5 + 4 + 42 + 86 = 145
Add the tenth together: 0.2 + 0.3 + 0.3 + 0.1 = 0.9
Add the hundredth together: 0.06 (we only have one value in hundredth)

Then add all the answers together: 145 + 0.9 + 0.06 = 145.96

Answer 145.96 is correct to two decimal places
If we want to round this answer to correct significant figures, it would depend on how many significant figures are asked. 

For example:
145.96 to one significant figure is 100.00
145.96 to two significant figure is 150.00
145.96 to three significant figure is 146.00

and so on

Correct answer: 146.00 (answer is rounded to three significant figures)

Rodney is given two linear equations: x – y = 11 and 2x + y = 19. What value of x should he get as a solution for this system of
olga55 [171]

Answer:

x = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 2 equations

x - y = 11 → (1)

2x + y = 19 → (2)

Adding the 2 equations term by term eliminates the term in y, that is

(x + 2x) + (- y + y) = (11 + 19), simplifying gives

3x = 30 ( divide both sides by 3 )

x = 10
