Two florists purchased flower bouquets and vases at the same store. The first florist bought 3 flower bouquets and 5 vases for a

total of $25.75. The second florist bought 8 flower bouquets and 2 vases for a total of $29.00.

I finished the test and here's the answer~!
3x+5y=25.75
8x+2y=29.00
So I first got what x is equal too.
8x+2y=29    8x+2y-2y=29-2y    8x=29-2y    8x/8=29/8-2y/8    x=3.625-0.25y
Next substitute x for the equation.
3(3.625-0.25y)+5y=25.75
10.875-0.75y+5y=25.75
10.875-10.875+4.25y=25.75-10.875
4.25y/4.25=14.875/4.25
y = 3.5
Now substitute y for 3.5.
8x+2(3.5)=29
8x+7-7=29-7
8x/8=22/8
x = 2.75
The price of a flower bouquet would be $2.75. Don't worry I got this question correct. :)

Answer:

50

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the experimental probability, first we have to find total amount paint then to find the amount of good quality forever paint we have to subtract the amounts of other paints from total amount.

Let x represents the amount of good quality forever paint sold.

Total amount of paint =48+45+35+39+33+x=200+x     ...(i)

Experimental probability of paint sold will be better quality durable paint is

P=\dfrac{\text{Amount of better quality durable paint}}{\text{Amount of total paint}}

P=\dfrac{45}{\text{Amount of total paint}}

It is given that experimental probability of paint sold will be better quality durable paint is \frac{9}{50}.

\frac{9}{50}=\dfrac{45}{\text{Amount of total paint}}

\text{Amount of total paint}=\dfrac{45\times 50}{9}

\text{Amount of total paint}=250     ...(ii)

From (i) and (ii), we get

200+x=250

x=250-200

x=50

Therefore, 50 gallons good quality forever paint is sold.

What values of x satisfy the equation 2x^2 -3x +4 =0
BaLLatris [955]

Answer:

(3 ± √23 * i) /4

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this, we can apply the Quadratic Equation.

In an equation of form ax²+bx+c = 0, we can solve for x by applying the Quadratic Equation, or x = (-b ± √(b²-4ac))/(2a)

Matching up values, a is what's multiplied by x², b is what's multiplied by x, and c is the constant, so a = 2, b = -3, and c = 4

Plugging these values into our equation, we get

x = (-b ± √(b²-4ac))/(2a)

x = (-(-3) ± √(3²-4(2)(4)))/(2(2))

= (3 ± √(9-32))/4

= (3 ± √(-23))/4

= (3 ± √23 * i) /4

This equation shows how the cost of a charity gala depends on the number of attendees. d = 5.1a + 11.6 The variable a represents
aleksandr82 [10.1K]

$98.30=5.1a+11.6
98.30-11.6=5a+11.6-11.6
86.7=5a
86.7/5=5a/5
17.34=a
So only 17 people can attend
