16 In a flower fertilisation experiment, the number of pink flowers grown is twice that
of red flowers. The number of white flowers
grown is 3 more than that of red flowers.
The number of white flowers grown is
37 fewer than that of pink flowers. Find the
total number of flowers grown.​

The total number of flowers grown is 163.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since in a flower fertilization experiment, the number of pink flowers grown is twice that of red flowers, and the number of white flowers grown is 3 more than that of red flowers, the number of white flowers grown is 37 fewer than that of pink flowers, to find the total number of flowers grown the following calculation must be performed:

P = 2R

W = R + 3

W = P - 37

W = W

R + 3 = 2R - 37

R + 3 + 37 = 2R

40 = 2R - R

40 = R

P = 2 x 40 = 80

R = 40

W = 40 + 3 = 43

80 + 40 + 43 = X

163 = X

Therefore, the total number of flowers grown is 163.

$2416.6

step-by-step explanation:

per hour = $ 25

total work time = 35

commission = 15%

total she has to make = $ 4,500

let she sold x dollar products

so her commission will be 15 % of x

now

total = weekly basic pay + commission

4500= (25*35) + 15 % of x

4500=875 + * x

4500-875 =   * x

3625= * x

multiplying wwith 100 on both sides gives

36250 = 15 x

now

x =  

x= $2416.6
