Abouquet of lilies and tulips has 12 flowers. lilies cost $3 each and tulips cost $2 each the bouquet cost $32. write and solve a system of linear equations to find the number of lilies and tulips in the bouquet.

Let x represents the number of lilies and y represents the number of tulips in the bouquet.

As per the statement:

A bouquet of lilies and tulips has 12 flowers.

⇒x+y = 12                         .....[1]

It is also given that lilies cost $3 each and tulips cost $2 each the bouquet cost $32.

⇒             .....[2]

Multiply equation [1] by 3 we get;

3x+ 3y = 36                    .....[3]

Subtract equation [2] from [3] we get;

Combine like terms;

Substitute the value of y in [1] we get;

x + 4 = 12

Subtract 4 from both sides we get;

x = 8

Therefore, the number of lilies are 8 and the number of tulips are 4

answer is x<

to find the perimeter of the rectangle this is the expression:

x-9+x-9+3x-4+3x-4=138

if we simplify it:

8x-26=138

remember, 138 is what it all adds up to

the length is 11.5cm

the width is 57.5cm

the area is 661.25cm^2
