There are 4 roses for every 7 carnations in a bouqeuet. Mr rodriguez buys a bouqeuet with 12 roses in it. How many total flowers are in the bouqeuet Mr rodriguez bought? Please explain step by step I dont get it.

33 total flowers are in the bouquet Mr Rodriguez bough

Step-by-step explanation:

So for every 4 roses there are 7 carnations meaning the ratio is 4:7

4 times x = 12

x=3

So we do the same for carnations

7 x 3 = 21

Now we add to find the total

21+12=33

33 total flowers

none of the above.

for one of the equations to be used in the process, there has to be a term in the equation since squared is .

since there is only a term in the first equation, we cannot derive a from completing the square.

solving with completing the square

see explanation

step-by-step explanation:

since the sequence is geometric there is a common ratio r between consecutive terms, that is

r = 4 ÷ - 2 = - 2

r = - 8 ÷ 4 = - 2

r = 16 ÷ 8 = - 2

the next term - 13 must be incorrect as it should be - 32 for the sequence to be geometric.

the first 4 terms are therefore geometric with common ratio r = - 2
