In Lily's garden, there are 5 rose bushes the first year. Each year, she adds two new rose bushes. She has 20 tulip plants the first year and loses 3 each year. When will the number of rose bushes equal
the number of tulip plants? Use graphing to find the solution.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = the number of years since the first year and let y = the total number of plants.

Roses: y = 5 + 2x

Tulips: y = 20 – 3x

You can use elimination to solve.

y = 5 + 2x

(-)y = 20 – 3x

0 = -15 + 5x

15 = 5x

3 = x

This means that 3 years after the first year, the number of rose bushes equals the number of tulip plants.

The graphs appear to

intersect at (3, 11) which verifies that x=3

answer: i'm not going to give you the answer, but some hints to work it out.

step-by-step explanation: so, if there is a straight line that means that the line angle is 180°. so we subtract the 2 angle measures provided, (15 and 38) from 180. so the answer is 180 - (38 + 15). (you have to solve the equation)

1/8 3/16 3/4

step-by-step explanation:

you put them as all the same denominator and multiply
