Brad wants to buy flowers for his friend with $33. the daisies are $1 each and the roses are $3 each. he buys 3 more daisies than roses. q: how much did the roses cost?

Let x=the amount of roses that Brad buys. (x+3)=the number of daisies that Brad buys.

x+(x+3)=33

Simplify this problem to find the amount of roses:

2x+3=33

2x=30

x=15

So, Brad buys 15 roses and 18 daisies.

Since roses cost $3, 15*3=45.

The roses cost $45.

Hope this helps! :)

the entire expression should be subtracted from 30. to subtract the quantity, distribute the negative sign, which changes the signs on the terms. so, the –2 changes to positive and gets added to 30 instead of subtracted from it.

hope this ! ^w^
