Answer:

White roses - 7

Red roses - 17

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up proportional equations

White roses = x

Red roses = 3x - 4

Set equal to 24

x + 3x - 4 = 24

4x - 4 = 24

4x = 28

x = 7

x is white roses, so there are 7

Plug x value into red rose equation

3(7)-4

21-4 = 17 red roses

Check

17+7 = 24

Mai is making personal pizzas. For 4 pizzas, she uses 10 ounces of cheese. How much does she use on 1 pizza. How much does she u
jasenka [17]

Answer:

32.5

Step-by-step explanation:

10 ounces is in 4 pizzas so if we want 15 pizzas we need to count up

4 can not fit into 15 so we have to stop at 12 pizzas.

Now we need to add 3 pizzas

:Note: that one pizza is 2.5 of an ounce  out of 10 ounces

so after you add the 3 pizzas you have 15 but that wasnt 4 pizzas so you have 2.5 ounces left over you add those ounces to the 30 you got from the 12 ounces which you have 30 and add it to the ounces left over

2.5 + 30 = 32.5

topjm [15]

Answer:

10.5 %

Step-by-step explanation:

Here .

let the Cost Price be 'x'

the..

by the question..

the marked price was fixed to make 30% profit

then..

the marked price will be

x+ 30% of x

= x + 30/100 × x

=x+ 0.3x

=1.3x

soo .. the marked price is 1.3x

now.. after allowing 15% discount..

the selling price will be

1.3x - 15% of 1.3x

= 1.3x - 0.195x

= 1.105x

thank you...

plzz mark me brainliest now

now..

profit made = 1.105x-x

= 0.105x

soo .

in percentage..

profit percent = profit/cp × 100%

= 0.105x/x × 100%

= 10.5 %
