Answer:
8 Bows
Step-by-step explanation:
I will be using money as an example.
It takes 4 quarters to make a dollar. (1/4 1/4 1/4 1/4 = 1)
By using this method we will know that it takes 24 quarters to make 6 dollars and the additional 1/4 is an extra quarter. Now that we have 25 quarters we will divide it by 3 because it takes 3/4 to make a bow.
6x4=24
24 + 1 = 25
25/3= 8.333333
Answer:
The answer is confirmed 1. Just took it.
Step-by-step explanation:
With the given information, we can create several equations:
120 = 12x + 2y
150 = 10x + 10y
With x being the number of rose bushes, and y being the number of gardenias.
To find the values of the variables, we can use two methods: Substitution or Elimination
For this case, let us use elimination. To begin, let's be clear that we are going to be adding these equations together. Therefore, in order to get the value of one variable, we must cancel one of them out - it could be x or y, it doesn't matter which one you decide to cancel out. Let's cancel the x out:
We first need to multiply the equations by numbers that would cause the x's to cancel out - and this can be done as follows:
-10(120 = 12x + 2y)
12(150 = 10x + 10y) => Notice how one of these is negative
Multiply out:
-1200 = -120x - 20y
+ 1800 = 120x + 120y => Add these two equations together
---------------------------------
600 = 100y
Now we can solve for y:
y = 6
With this value of y known, we can then pick an equation from the beginning of the question, and plug y in to solve for x:
120 = 12x + 2y => 120 = 12x + 2(6)
Now we can solve for x:
120 = 12x + 12 => 108 = 12x
x = 9
So now we know that x = 9, and y = 6.
With rose bushes being x, we now know that the cost of 1 rose bush is $9.
With gardenias being y, we now know that the cost of 1 gardenia is $6.
