Answer:

therefore the second bouquet will have more flowers , as it will have 25 daisies

Step-by-step explanation:

3 roses for every 5 carnations

5 daisies for every 4 carnations

we can solve this using cross multiplication

3 : 5

x : 20

5x = 60

x = 60/5

<em>x = 12</em>

meaning that for a bouquet that has 20 carnations there will be 12 roses

5 : 4

x : 20

4x = 100

<em>x = 25</em>

meaning that for a bouquet that has 20 carnations there will be 25 daisies.

<u>therefore the second bouquet will have more flowers , as it will have 25 daisies</u>

Simplify
2nd one divide both sides by 5
5x+4y=4
hmm, seems familliar
times it by -1
-5x-4y=-4
same as other one

they are the same line
therefor the solution set is all the points on the line -5x-4y=-4 or y=(-5/4)x+1


solution set is alll points on y=(-5/4)x+1 or 5x+4y=4

Answer:

Number of Starbursts= 66

Step-by-step explanation:

Method:

The first step in working out the number of Starbursts in the bowl is to add the the ratios of 3 and 4, this gives you 7.

The next step is to divide the total number of sweets which is 154 by the value of 7, this gives you 22. This is because we are trying to find out the value of one in the ratio.

The final step would be to work out the number of Starbursts in the bowl. This can be done by multiplying 22 by the ratio for Starbursts which is 3, this gives you 66. This means that out of 154 sweets 66 of them were starbursts.

Set by step:

1) Add 3 and 4.

3+4=7

2) Divide 154 by 7.

154/7=22

3) Multiply 22 by 3.

22*3=66
