Answer: cost of 1 pot of ivy = $12

Cost of 1 rose bush =$ 10

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1

Let rose bushes be represented as r

and pot of ivy be represented as p

such that Amy who spent 82 dollars on 7 rose bushes and 1 pot of ivy can be expressed as

7 r + p = 82----- eqn 1

Rob who spent 74 on 5 rose bushes and 2 pots of ivy can  be expressed as

5r +2 p = 74----- eqn 2

Step 2

Solving

7 r + p = 82----- eqn 1

5r +2 p = 74----- eqn 2

By elimination method Multiply eqn 1 by 5 and eqn 2 by 7

35r+ 5p= 410--- eqn 3

35r+ 14p =518--- eqn 4

Subtracting eqn 4 from eqn 3

9p = 108

p = 108/9

p=12

p = pot of ivy = $12

therefore rose bush  wll be ( from equation 1)

7r+ p= 82

7r=82-12

7r= 70 r= 70/7

r= rose bush =$ 10

A bin contains 25 light bulbs, 5 of which are in good condition and will function for at least 30 days, 10 of which are partiall
Ira Lisetskai [31]

Answer:

The probability that it will still be working after one week is \frac{1}{5}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

Total number of bulbs = 25

Number of bulbs which are good condition and will function for at least 30 days = 5

Number of bulbs which are partially defective and will fail in their second day of use = 10

Number of bulbs which are totally defective and will not light up = 10

To find : What is the probability that it will still be working after one week?

Solution :

First condition is a randomly chosen bulb initially lights,

i.e. Either it is in good condition and partially defective.

Second condition is it will still be working after one week,

i.e. Bulbs which are good condition and will function for at least 30 days

So, favorable outcome is 5

The probability that it will still be working after one week is given by,

\text{Probability}=\frac{\text{Favorable outcome}}{\text{Total number of outcome}}

\text{Probability}=\frac{5}{25}

\text{Probability}=\frac{1}{5}

(a) Suppose that a person has an average heart rate of 72.0 beats/min. How many beats does he or she have in 2.0 y? (b) In 2.00
Gemiola [76]

Answer:

A= 75686400

B= 7568640000

C= 75686400000

Step-by-step explanation:

1 day= 1440 min

1 year= 365 days

365 days*1440 min= 525600 min , 1 year= 525600 min

525600 min*2 years= 1051200 min

(in 2 years) 72 beats*1051200 min= 75686400

(in 200 years) 75686400*100= 7568640000

(in 2000 years) 7568640000*10 =75686400000

Use substitution method &amp; show your work.<br>y = x^2 + 3x - 1<br>4x + 1 = y
irina1246 [14]
4x + 1 = x^2 + 3x - 1
4x = x^2 + 3x - 2
0 = x^2 -x - 2
0 = x^2 -x + 1 - 3
0 = (x - 1)^2 - 3
3 = (x - 1)^2
sqrt 3=(x-1) and (-(x-1))
x = 1+sqrt 3 and 1-sqrt 3
sqrt means square root
