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

The variables x and y have a quadratic relationship. Tripling the value of x causes the value of y to increase by a factor of ni
Lady bird [3.3K]

Answer:

<em>The value of y when x has a value of 9 is 18</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Functions</u>

The variables x and y are said to have a quadratic relationship. That information is not enough to set up a general equation for both variables.

Furthermore, we know that tripling the value of x causes the value of y to be multiplied by 9. That leads us to establish a proportional equation between them, as follows:

y=kx^2

Where k is an unknown constant.

Let's use the given point (3,2) to find the value of k:

2=k(3)^2

2=9k

Solving for k:

\displaystyle k=\frac{2}{9}

The equation is now:

\displaystyle y=\frac{2}{9}x^2

Now find y when x=9:

\displaystyle y=\frac{2}{9}(9)^2

\displaystyle y=\frac{2}{9}\cdot 81=18

The value of y when x has a value of 9 is 18
