Cost for a carnation is $0.75

Step-by-step explanation:

Let,

Rose = x

Carnation = y

According to given statement;

8x+5y=31.75   Eqn 1

x+3y=5.75   Eqn 2

Multiplying\ Eqn\ 2\ by\ 8\\8(x+3y=5.75)\\8x+24y=46 \ \ \ Eqn\ 3\\Subtracting\ Eqn\ 1\ from\ Eqn\ 3\\(8x+24y)-(8x+5y)=46-31.75\\8x+24y-8x-5y=14.25\\19y=14.25\\Dividing\ both\ sides\ by\ 19\\\frac{19y}{19}=\frac{14.25}{19}\\y=0.75

Cost for a carnation is $0.75

F(x)=(x-2)^2<br><br> Evaluate for f(5)<br><br> Need Answers ASAP
borishaifa [10]

Answer:

<h2>f(5) = 9</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = ( x - 2)²

To find f(5) substitute the value of x that's 5 into f(x). That's for every x in f (x) replace it with 5

That's

f(5) = ( 5 - 2)²

= 3²

We have the final answer as

<h3>f(5) = 9</h3>

Hope this helps you
