Answer:

The florist can make 11 regular bouquets and 21 mini bouquets

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of roses the florist has = 118 roses

The number of peonies the florist has = 226 peonies

The number of roses in each regular bouquet = 5 roses

The number of peonies in each regular bouquet = 11 peonies

The number of roses in each mini bouquet = 3 roses

The number of peonies in each mini bouquet = 5 peonies

1. The equation that gives the total number of roses to be used in both kinds of bouquet is given as follows;

Let r represent the number of regular bouquet the florist can make and let m represent the number of mini bouquet the florist can make, we have;

5·r + 3·m = 118...(1)

2. Similarly, we have;

11·r + 5·m  = 226...(2)

Making m the subject of the formula of both equations, and equating both values of m to find a common solution, we have;

m = (118 - 5·r)/3

m = (226 - 11·r)/5

(118 - 5·r)/3 = (226 - 11·r)/5

5 × (118 - 5·r) = 3 × (226 - 11·r)

590 - 25·r = 678 - 33·r

33·r - 25·r = 678 - 590 = 88

8·r = 88

r = 88/8 = 11

r = 11

The number of regular bouquet the florist can make = r = 11

m = (118 - 5·r)/3 = (118 - 5×11)/3 = 21

m = 21

The number of mini bouquet the florist can make = m = 21

The number of regular bouquet the florist can make = 11 bouquets

The number of mini bouquet the florist can make = 21 bouquets.

2. Tickets to a play cost $344.50 for a group of 12 adults and 10 children. Each aduit ticket cost
Drupady [299]
Each kid ticket will cost 12.25 dollars because 18.50 times 12 equals 222 dollars. You subtract 222 from 344.50 to get the total amount for 10 kids which is 122.50 dollars. 122.50 divides by 10 is 12.50.

How do you do this problem?
aev [14]

f(x) = (x - 4)^2 - 1

g(x) = -(1/4) ( x - 4)^2 + 4

both the x and y values have to be the same. Start with the y values

f(x) = g(x)

(x - 4)^2 - 1 = -(1/4) (x - 4)^2 + 4 Add 1 to both sides.

(x - 4)^2 = -(1/4) (x - 4)^2 + 5 Add 1/4(x - 4)^2 to both sides.

(5/4) (x - 4)^2 = 5 Divide by 5/4 on both sides.

(x - 4)^2 = 5//(5/4)

(x - 4)^2 = (5/1)//5/4 Invert the second fraction and multiply

(x - 4)^2 = 5/1 * 4/5

(x - 4)^2 = 4 The 5s cancel

(x - 4)^2 = 4 Take the square root of both sides.

(x - 4) = +/- 2 Add 4 to each answer. Start with +2 on the right.

x - 4 + 4 = 2 + 4

x = 4 + 2 = 6

The x value that makes f(x)- g(x) = 0 is x = 6 The point is (6,3) answer.

Answer C.

================================================

You do not need this next part. It is just for completeness.

x - 4 = - 2

x = 4 -2

x = 2

What are the y values for these 2 x values?

y = (x - 4)^2 - 1

y = (6 - 4)^2 - 1

y = 4 - 1

y = 3

The point where f(x) - g(x) = 0 is (6,3) <<<<<< Answer 1

The second point is

y = (x - 4)^2 - 1

y = (2 - 4)^2 - 1

y = (-2)^2 - 1

y = 4 - 1

y = 3

The second point is (2,3). Answer 2

Note the y values are the same. You might expect that.
