Answer:
I believe the correct answer is C.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x=the amount of roses that Brad buys. (x+3)=the number of daisies that Brad buys.
x+(x+3)=33
Simplify this problem to find the amount of roses:
2x+3=33
2x=30
x=15
So, Brad buys 15 roses and 18 daisies.
Since roses cost $3, 15*3=45.
The roses cost $45.
Hope this helps! :)
Example:
The sum of two consecutive integers is -15. What is the product of the two integers?
x = 1st consecutive integer
x + 1 = 2nd consecutive integer {consecutive integers increase by 1}
x + x + 1 = -15 {the sum of two consecutive integers is -15}
2x + 1 = -15 {combined like terms}
2x = -16 {subtracted 1 from each side}
x = -8 {divided each side by 2}
x + 1 = -7 {substituted -8, in for x, into x + 1}
-8 and -7 are the two consecutive integers
Their product is 56.
