There are some roses, lilies, and orchids in the vase. the number of roses is twice the number of lilies and the number of orchids is 5 more than the number of roses. if the total is 45, find the number of each type of flower

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say R is roses, L is lilies, and O is orchids.

R = 2L

O = R + 5

R + L + O = 45

Let's substitute the second equation into the third:

R + L + (R + 5) = 45

2R + L = 40

Now substitute the first equation:

2(2L) + L = 40

4L + L = 40

5L = 40

L = 8

Therefore:

R = 2L = 16

O = R + 5 = 21

There are 16 roses, 8 lilies, and 21 orchids.

the correct answer is option c.   3

step-by-step explanation:

points to remember

equation of the line with coordinates (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂) is given by,

slope m = (y₂ - y₁)/(x₂ - x₁)

from the figure we can see a line with two coordinates given

to find the slope of given line

here   (x₁, y₁)   = (-1, -1 ) and (x₂, y₂) = (1, 5)

slope m = (y₂ - y₁)/(x₂ - x₁)

  = (5 - -1)/(1 - -1)

  = (5 + 1)/(1 + 1)

  = 6/2 = 3

therefore the correct answer is option c.   3

idk but i found this "the graph of y = f(x-2) is the graph of y = f(x) translated two units rightward.  

so, since the point (9,2) lies on the graph of y = f(x), the point (11,2) lies on the graph of y = f(x-2)."
