Given:
Angelica reads 15 pages of a book each day.
In 10 days, she reads 200 pages.
Assume the relationship is linear.
To find:
The rate of change and initial value.
Solution:
The slope intercept form of a linear function is:
...(i)
Where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.
Angelica reads 15 pages of a book each day. So, the rate of change is 15 pages per day and 
.
In 10 days, she reads 200 pages. It means the linear relation passes through the point (10,200).
Putting 
in (i), we get
So, the y-intercept is 50. It means the initial number of pages angelica already read is 50.
Therefore, the rate of change is 15, it means Angelica reads 15 pages per day. The y-intercept is 50, it means the initial number of pages angelica already read is 50.
Answer:
13 carnations
Step-by-step explanation:
Assuming you meant 2/5 because 2.5 would mean there are more roses in the vase than there are flowers in the vase, heres how to solve this.
Understanding
Each fraction is referring to "flowers" not "remaining flowers" and as such each time we will be comparing to the total.
2/5 of the total flowers are roses. This is written in words as for every 5 flowers two are roses, which means we will multiply 2 by how many sets of five we have in 30 flowers.
(30/5) x 2 =
(6) x 2 = 12 roses
Though with fractions its written as 30/1*2/5 which is the same as (30 x 2)/5
60/5 = 12 roses
Following this logic for every 6 flowers one is a daisy.
30/1 * 1/6 = (30 x 1)/6 = 30/6 = 5 daisies
Because the rest are carnations we want to subtract the amount of daisies and roses from the total amount of flowers to find the remaining flowers.
30 - 5 - 12 = 13 carnations
