B=cost per boquet
v=cost per vase

3b+5v=25.75
8b+2v=29.00

use eliminateion
divide 2nd equation by 2
4b+v=14.50
multiply it by -5 and add to other equation to eliminate v

-20b-5v=-72.5
<span><u>3b+5v=25.75 +</u></span><u />
-17b+0v=-46.75

-17b=-46.75
divide both sides by -17
b=2.75

a boquet costs $2.75

The volume of a packing box is 5 – x cubic feet. The width of the box is x feet and the length is x – 2 feet. The height is give
photoshop1234 [79]
By definition we have that the volume is given by
 V = h * w * l
 where
 V: Volume
 h: height
 w: width
 l: length
 Clearing the height we have:
 h = V / (w * l)
 h = (5 - x) / ((x) * (x - 2))
 The expression is not defined for the values of x that make the denominator zero:
 ((x) * (x - 2)) = 0
 x = 0
 x = 2
 Answer
 h = (5 - x) / ((x) * (x - 2))
 x = 0
 x = 2
