If the proportion of iris to roses in Nikki's garden is 2: 5, it means that for 25 roses: (2/5) = (10/25). Therefore to maintain the proportion by adding 20 roses: (2/5) = (18/45). The number of irises after the addition of roses will be 10 + 18 = 28 irises.
Answer:
The charge for admission is $6 and the charge for each ride is $2
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
x ----> the charge for admission
y ----> the charge for each ride
we have that
-----> equation A
-----> equation B
Solve the system by elimination
Subtract equation B from equation A

Find the value of x
substitute the value of y in any equation




therefore
The charge for admission is $6 and the charge for each ride is $2
Answer: choice A) 7017
==========================================================
Work Shown:
The first term is a_1 = 24 and we go up by 7 each time.
The common difference is d = 7
The nth term formula we'll use is
a_n = a_1 + (n-1)*d
a_n = 24 + (n-1)*7
----------
The 1000th term corresponds to n = 1000
Replace every n with 1000
Then use the order of operations (PEMDAS) to simplify
a_n = 24 + (n-1)*7
a_1000 = 24 + (1000-1)*7
a_1000 = 24 + (999)*7
a_1000 = 24 + 6993
a_1000 = 7017
