Let's explore possible case scenarios.

---------------------

Case A) Each person gets a rose and a daisy (2 flowers per person)

In this case, Jackie can make 2 such arrangements because she has 2 roses. We have 2 left over daisies.

---------------------

Case B) Each person gets a rose only (1 flower per person)

Only two arrangements are possible for the same reason as case A. In this situation, we have 4 left over daisies.

----------------------

Case C) Each person gets a daisy only (1 flower per person)

We have 4 arrangements possible because we have 4 daisies. The left over flowers are the 2 roses.

-----------------------

Case D) Each person gets 2 roses

Only one such arrangement is possible, so this only applies to one person really. You can say that 2/2 = 1. We have 4 left over daisies in this case.

-----------------------

Case E) Each person gets 2 daisies

Since 4/2 = 2, this means we can make 2 arrangements. There are 2 left over roses.

------------------------

Case F) Each person gets 2 daisies and 1 rose

We can see that 4/2 = 2 and 2/2 = 1, meaning that we can make at most 2 arrangements here. There are no leftovers. In contrast, the other cases do have leftovers of some kind.

------------------------

In short, you can do trial and error to see which case works to fit the conditions your teacher set. Case F is what we go for to have each flower bouquet consist of 2 daisies and 1 rose. We'll get 2 bouquets possible. Notice how cases A through E have at least one left over flower (either of one kind or both types), while case F has no leftovers.

Travka [436]

Answer:

7.5\ seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

The Equation of motion is given by

v=u-at\\\\\ v:Final\ Velocity\\u:Initial\ Velocity\\a:acceleration\\t:time

Herev=0(as\ at\ the\ end\ car\ stops), u=30m/s,a=-4m/s^2

0=30-4t\\\\4t=30\\\\t=\frac{30}{4}\\\\t=7.5\ seconds

Steps for showing percent of 2028÷30%
4vir4ik [10]
2028/x=100/30
<span>(2028/x)*x=(100/30)*x       </span>we multiply both sides of the equation by x
<span>2028=3.3333333333333*x       </span>we divide both sides of the equation by (3.3333333333333) to get x
<span>2028/3.3333333333333=x </span>
<span>608.4=x </span>
<span>x=608.4
so there for its 608.4 hope this helps.</span>

Identify the 25th term of the arithmetic sequence 2, 1 and 3 over 5,
raketka [301]
First, you have to transform your numbers into proper fractions:
1 and 3/5 = (5+3)/5 = 8/5
1 and 1/5 = (5+1)/5 = 6/5

Therefore your arithmetic sequence is 2, 8/5, 6/5, ...

In an arithmetic sequence, the difference between a given term and the preceding one is equal to the difference between the <span>following </span>term and the given one. In your case:
d = 8/5 - 2 = (8-10)/5 = -2/5
As a prove: d = 6/5 - 8/5 = -2/5

Now, in order to find the 25th term you need to apply the formula:
an = a + (n - 1)d
where an is the number you are looking for, a is the first term, n is the term you are looking for and d is the distance.
Hence, 
a₂₅ = 2 + (25-1)(-2/5) = 2 - 24·2/5 = 2 - 48/5 = (10-48)/5 = -38/5

Is this a function?<br> (4,12)<br> (4,15)<br> (5,18)<br> (5,21)<br> (6,24)
cluponka [151]

Answer:

No this is not a function.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is not a function because some of the x-values repeat, which is not how a function works. For this to be a function, each x-value would have to be different. In this case, the 4 and 5 repeat in the x-values.
