Alandscaping company ordered 17 plants and 8 trees for a total of $964. if plants are $12 each, write and solve a linear equation to find the cost for each tree.

The cost of each tree is $95

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x -----> the cost of each tree in dollars

we know that

The number of plants multiplied by the cost of each plant plus the number of trees multiplied by the cost of each tree must be equal to $964

so

Solve for x

subtract 204 both sides

Divide by 8 both sides

therefore

The cost of each tree is $95

question 1 is 8, question 2 is 9, question 3 is 24

step-by-step explanation:

now, the numbers they give you at the top are the key. from there, you just have to plug and chug! let's try 1, 2, and 3!

key: a=3, b=5, c=6

1. a+5

remember, a=3, so we plug that in to get 3+5=8

2. 15-c

c=6, so we plug that in to get 15-6=9

3. 4b

b=6, so we plug it in to get 4*6=24

time to try the rest on your own! if you put the answers below in a comment, i'll check them for you!

hello :

by applying the distributive property :

6 × 4.3 = 6 × ( 4 + 0.3 )

            =   (6 ×   4) + (6 ×   0.3)

            = 24 + 1.8

6 × 4.3 = 25.8
