D + 3r = 15
d = r + 3

r + 3 + 3r = 15
4r + 3 = 15
4r = 15 - 3
4r = 12
r = 12/4
r = 3 ....he bought 3 roses, at $ 3 per rose = $ 9 <==

d = r + 3
d = 3 + 3
d = 6....he bought 6 daisies, at $ 1 per daisy = $ 6

Brad wants to buy flowers for his friend with $15. The daisies are $1 each and the roses are $3 each. He buys 3 more daisies than roses how much did the roses cost?
-daisies=x-      -roses=y-

x+y=15

the sentence how he buys 3 more daisies than roses so...
(y=x-3)
you then plug in the value of y in the equation to have only one variable...
x+ 3(x-3)=15
you then multiply 3 to the parenthesis...
x+3x-9=15
then add 9 on both sides...
4x=24
and then divide 4 on both sides...
x=6

if you plug the value of x(daisies) in the equation...
6+y=15
you subtract 6 on both sides and get...
y=9

you can also get the answer by solving for y with x...
y=3(x-3)
(x=6)
plug in x...
y=3(6-3)
y=3(3)
y=9
Answer: the roses cost $9

Alright, 4 to the 8th power is 4x4x4x4x4x4x4x4 which ends up as 65,536.

4 to the 5th power is the same thing but with 5 4's and that is 1,024.

All you need to do now is 65,536/1,024 = 64.

En said the value of the expression 72-8^2 +6*3 is 50. What mistake did Ben make? Correct Ben’s mistake and give the value of th
posledela

Given:

72-\frac{8}{2}+6\times3

He does mistake in the order of giving preference.

We should give preference in the order, division, multiplication, addition, subtraction.

But, he gave the first preferrence to the subtraction.

72-8=64

Next, he used division

64/2=32

Next he adds 32 with 8.

So, he gets 50.

But the actual simplification is,

Simplifying we get,

\begin{gathered} 72-\frac{8}{2}+6\times3=72-4+18 \\ =68+18 \\ =86 \end{gathered}

Hence, the correct value of the expression is 86.
