Answer:

She can buy a maximum number of 15 containers

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told from the question that:

Mrs. Phan needs at least 5 containers of tulips and at least 5 containers of lilies.

Tulips cost $6 per container and lilies cost $4 per container. If Mrs. Phan has a total of $75 to spend for the tulips and lilies, what is the greatest number of containers she can buy?

Let x represent the number of Can of tulips for both tulips and lilies

x ≥ 5 cans for both tulips and lilies

$6 × x + $4 × x = $75

6x + 4x = 75

10x = 75

x = 75/10

x = 7.5 cans

This means , 7.5 containers for tulips and 7.5 containers for lilies

Adding up both containers, we have :

7.5 + 7.5 = 15 containers

Therefore, the greatest number of containers she can buy is 15 containers

Need help for 16) and 19) Solve each equation and check. Show all work please
Paladinen [302]

Step-by-step explanation:

You said the other one would be the last haha just kidding I'm glad to help.

16. \frac{k}{2}=(-5)^2

First, get rid of that parenthesis.

\frac{k}{2}=25

Now multiply both sides by 2 so that you can isolate k

2(\frac{k}{2})=25*2

k=50

19. \frac{r}{3}=\frac{121}{11}

This is a pretty easy one. If you didn't know, 121/11 is actually 11 :)

\frac{r}{3}=11

Simply multiply by 3 to isolate r :)

3(\frac{r}{3})=11*3

r=33

c = circumference pi = 3.14 r = radius = 9 inches d = diameter c=pi*d The radius is half of the diameter, d = 2r. Then d = 2*9=18. plug into equation. c= pi*d = 3.14*18 round accordingly and you may want to include that the measurement you end up with is in inches.
