Answer:

Each daylilies  cost $7

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:

let roses be x

and daylilies be y

so

8x+15y=193--------------1

also

3x+12y=117--------------2

we can solve equations 1 and 2 by substitution

8x=193-15y

x=(193-15y)/8

put x= (193-15y)/8  in 3x+12y=117

3((193-15y)/8)+12y=117

(579-45y)/8+12y=117

579-45y=8(117-12y)

579-45y=936-96y

collect like terms

579-936=-96y+45y

-357=-51y

divide both sides by -51

y=-357/-51

y=7

Hence each daylilies  cost $7

put y=7 in eqn 1

8x+15(7)=193

8x+105=193

8x=193-105

8x=88

x=88/8

x=11

rose cost $8

Solve the equation -15=a/5 <br> A=-3<br> A=-20<br> A=-10<br> A=-75
agasfer [191]

To solve any equation, you do whatever you need to do 
to wind up with the unknown quantity all alone on one side.
BUT ... whatever you do to one side of the equation, you must
also do to the other side.

Here, we have the
he original equation:           -15  =  a/5

Multiply each side by 5 :     -75  =  a

and bada-bing, THERE's the solution !

What are the roots of 2x^2+10×-48=0
mojhsa [17]
X=-8,3.
divide all terms by the two in the first term to get x^2+5x-24=0. Then find the factors. To do so, find what two numbers can be multiplied to get 24, and whether those two numbers can be added or subtracted to get the middle term (5). Since 8x(-3)=24 and 8-3=5, (x+8) and (x-3) are the factors. Then set the factors equal to zero. Add or subtract these numbers to the other side of the equation and you then get x=-8,3. These are the roots.
