Answer: D - 15/17
Explanation: it is the only answer that keeps continuing on forever when divided
Number of flowers in the garden of Christina = 50
The ration of roses to daisies in Christina's garden = 1:4
Let us assume the common ratio to be = x
Then
x + 4x = 50
5x = 50
x = 50/5
= 10
Then
Number of roses in the garden of Christina = 1 * 10
= 10
Number of daisies in the garden of Christina = 4 * 10
= 40
So the number of roses in the garden of Christina is 10 and the number of daisies is 40.
Answer:
D) 27
Step-by-step explanation:
It's a rectangle so the opposite sides are congruent to each other.
<em />
<em>Long Side:</em>
6x + 6 = 42
subtract 6 from both sides:
6x = 36
divide both sides by 6:
x = 6
<em />
<em>Short Side:</em>
5y + 5 = 30
subtract 5 from both sides:
5y = 25
divide both sides by 5:
y = 5
<em />
<em>The Equation:</em>
2x + 3y
substitute in the values:
2(6) + 3(5)
do the multiplication:
12 + 15
add the values together:
27
