18. amos potted pansies and marigolds to sell in his greenhouse. during a busy weekend, he sold 48 pansies and 96 marigolds. what fraction of the flowers sold were marigolds? a. 3⁄8 b. 1⁄3 c. 2⁄3 d. 3⁄4

a

Step-by-step explanation:

I believe it would be a. maybe

2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

The question asks what fraction of the flowers that Amos sold were marigolds, knowing that he sold:

The fraction will be calculated as:

number of marigolds sold / total of flowers sold

So first we need to calculate the total number of flowers that were sold:

total number of sold flowers = 48 + 96 = 144 flowers

So now we can calculate the fraction:

96 marigolds / 144 flowers = 96/144 = 2/3

(We go from 96/144 to 2/3 by simplifying the equation by dividing the numerator and denominator by a common factor)

2/3 of the sold flowers were marigolds

g(x) = x² + 2

step-by-step explanation:

it is given that the graphs are the same shape.

the only difference is that the red graph is 2 units higher than the blue graph.

that is to say that the red graph is simply the blue graph that has been moved vertically by 2 units in the positive y direction.

hence

g(x) = f(x) + 2

or

g(x) = x² + 2
