Answer:

8

Step-by-step explanation:

If the gardener bought more white than pink, that could mean he could have bought 12 white and one pink, 11 white and 2 pink, 10 white and 3 pink, 9 white and 4 pink, 8 white and 5 pink, or 7 white and 6 pink.

If you plug in the numbers, for example with 7 and 6, that would equal $53, which is not correct. Continue to do this with all of the answers.

With 8 white roses and 5 pink roses, this would equal $55 (40+15), which is the answer.

In the equation x=−3y, what is the unit rate?
Paul [167]
The unit rate is -1/3.

In direct variation, y varies directly to x by a constant ratio k.

Its equation looks like this: y = kx ; where k stands for the constant ratio.

In the above equation. x = -3y, it should be converted to the proper equation. both sides must be transferred and its accompanying sign must be changed.

3y = -x
3y/3 = -x/3
y = (-1/3)x
where: y is the total value; -1/3 is the unit rate; and x is the number of units
