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
