Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the pentagon is regular, the sides are all of equal length. This tells you
... 5x-27 = 2x-6
... 3x = 21 . . . . . . . add 27-2x
... x = 7
The length of a side can be found by subtituting this value into either expression.
... 2·7-6 = 8 . . . . inches
4 out of 24 reduced to 1 out of 6 since there are 24 total buttons and 4 are blue. About 16.67%
Plug in 0.9 for x
-(x) + 2.7
- (0.9) + 2.7
simplify
2.7 - 0.9 = 1.8
1.8 is your answer

Answer:
carnation $2.50; rose $3.00
Step-by-step explanation:
Let c = price of 1 carnation.
Let r = price of 1 rose.
3c + 5r = 22.5
3c + 2r = 13.50
Subtract the se3cond equation from the first equation.
3r = 9
r = 3
Now substitute r = 3 in the first equation and solve for c.
3c + 5r = 22.5
3c + 5(3) = 22.5
3c = 7.5
c = 2.5
Answer: carnation $2.50; rose $3.00
