The answer to the solution is X+3<19-x.
If the line is parallel, the slope must also be 1/3.
Plug in the coordinates of (0,-9) into y=1/3x+b:
1) -9=(1/3)(0)+b
2) -9=0+b
3) b=-9
Divide 914/420, move the decimal over to the right two places and you'll get approximately 217.5%

Subtract the difference and divide by original number (: Move decimal place over two places.
Answer:
x = 76 roses
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Define variables
x = # of roses
y = # of tulips
Step 2: Write systems of equations
x = 4y + 8
5x + 2y = 414
Step 3: Use Substitution
5(4y + 8) + 2y = 414
20y + 40 + 2y = 414
22y = 374
y = 17
Step 4: Plug in <em>y</em> to find <em>x</em>
x = 4(17) + 8
x = 68 + 8
x = 76
