72 = x + x+2 + x+4

72 = 3x+6

66 = 3x

x = 66/3 = 22

1st number = 22

2nd number = 22+2 = 24

3rd number = 22+4 = 26

r-ruslan [8.4K]

Answer: she bought 13 petunias

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of Petunias pot of flowers that she bought.

Let y represent the number of begonias pot of flowers that she bought.

She bought 22 potted plants. This means that

x + y = 22

Petunias cost $7 per pot and begonias cost $8 per pot. She spent a total of $163. This means that

7x + 8y = 163 - - - - - - - - - - - -1

Substituting x = 22 - y into equation 1, it becomes

7(22 - y) + 8y = 163

154 - 7y + 8y = 163

- 7y + 8y = 163 - 154

y = 9

x = 22 - y = 22 - 9

x = 13

Determine the relative order of the metric prefixes of kilo-, micro-, centi-, and milli-.
nadya68 [22]

The relative order of the metric prefixes is micro-, milli-, centi- and  kilo-,

<h3>What are metric units?</h3>

Metric units are units used to measure quantities

The units are given as:

kilo-, micro-, centi-, and milli-

In metric units, the value of each prefix is:

Kilo = 1000

Micro = 0.0001

Centi = 100

Milli = 0.1

In order of arrangement, we have:

Micro = 0.0001

Milli = 0.1

Centi = 100

Kilo = 1000

Hence, the relative order of the metric prefixes is micro-, milli-, centi- and  kilo-,
