Let
b---------> <span>the cost of one flower bouquet
</span>v-------->  <span>the cost of one vase.

we know that
2b+2v=12.50-----> </span>Multiplied by -1------------->-2b-2v=-12.50
8b+2v=29---------------------------------------------> 8b+2v=29
           I add the two equations                    ------------------------
                                                                        6b=16.50
b=2.75
2*2.75+2*v=12.50---------------> v=(12.50-5.5)/2---------> v=3.5

the answer is
the cost of one flower bouquet is $2.75
the cost of one vase is $3.5

The base of a triangle is 4 meters shorter than the height. What are the height and length of the triangle if its area is 48 squ
Sergeeva-Olga [200]

Answer: H=12 and B=8

Looking at the problem, you are given the area, <em>a</em> , and told the h is 4 meters longer than <em>b; </em>in other words, <em>h</em>=<em>b</em>+4.

Since <em>a=</em>1/2<em>bh</em>, you can replace <em>a</em> with 48. Also, since <em>h</em> is <em>b</em>+4, you can replace that as well. You'd end up with this equation:

48=1/2b(b+4)

1. Seeing that 48 is 1/2 of <em>b,</em> you know that you have twice the value of 48, or 96. So, you can put that 96=<em>b(b+4). </em>

2.<em> </em>Now, thinking through factors of 96-  1 x 96, 2 x 48, 3 x 32, 4 x 24, 6 x 16, or 8 x 12, the only pair in which <em>h </em>is b+4 is 12 x 8.

Hope this helps,

Lacia :))
