Answer:

3 carnations.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that a florist divided 147 roses into bunches of 6. She had some roses left over.

Let us find the number of leftover roses by taking the largest multiple of 6 out of 147 or finding the remainder of 147 divided by 6 as:

 6)147( 24

<u>     12</u>

      27

 <u>     24</u>

        3

Since remainder is 3, so florist had 3 roses leftover.

We are also told that she combined the leftover roses with carnations to get a total of 6 flowers.

To find the number of carnation used by florist we will subtract number of roses from combined number of flowers.

\text{Carnation}=\text{Combined flowers}-\text{Roses}

\text{Carnation}=6-3

\text{Carnation}=3

Therefore, the florist used 3 carnations.

I am so stuck! :( Pls help me!!! I don't get the problem and I don't know how to solve it
Lelu [443]

Answer:

\frac{n^{2}}{2a}

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Just split it up first \frac{9an^{3}}{18a^{2}n}=\frac{9}{18}\times \frac{a}{a^2} \times\frac{n^3}{n}
  • Then 9 divided by 18 can be simplified into the fraction 1/2
  • What can go into a and a^2 ? a itself right, so if you divide a by a you get 1, if you divide a^2 by a you get a
  • Same as the a fraction, if you divide n^3 by n you get n^2
  • \frac{9an^{3}}{18a^{2}n}=\frac{9}{18}\times \frac{a}{a^2} \times\frac{n^3}{n}=\frac{1}{2}\times \frac{1}{a} \times\frac{n^2}{1}=\frac{n^{2}}{2a}

Tell whether x and y show direct variation. Explain your reasoning. x=y+2
Mashutka [201]

Answer:

It does not show variation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

x = y + 2

Required

Determine if there's direct variation between x and y

The general form of direct variation is:

y = kx

Make y the subject of formula in the given parameters;

x = y + 2

y = x - 2

Compare y = x - 2 to y = kx

<em>Since they are not of the same form, then the given equation do not show direct variation</em>
