12 roses costs $45.60, so in order to find the cost of one rose you have to divide the cost of 12 roses by 12, which gives $3.80.

Now that you know the cost of one rose, you can write an equation that gives you the cost in terms of the total number of roses by multiplying the cost of one rose by the total number of roses (x). This equation should be C = 3.8x

To find how much 18 roses would cost, you plug 18 into the previous equation for x, which gives you $68.40

Answer/Step-by-step explanation:

1. Well, we know that a dozen roses costs $45.60. We also know that a dozen is the same as 12. To know how much 1 rose costs, we need to divide $45.60 by 12.

45.60 ÷ 12 = $3.80. Therefore 1 rose costs $3.80.

2. y = yx

This is because the total amount of roses equal the cost of each rose multiplied by the amount of roses.

3. To find out how much 18 roses costs, we need to multiply the amount of one rose by 18. So, 3.80 x 18 = $68.4

Hope the helps! :D
