Respuesta :
okay first you should subtract 8.50 from 61.60 because the delivery charge doesn't count. 61.60-8.50=53.1. now divide 53.1 by 2.95. 53.1÷2.95=18. Romeo ordered 18 roses for his girlfriend.
Answer:
Romeo ordered 18 roses.
Step-by-step explanation:
Romeo ordered a bouquet of roses for his girlfriend.
Each rose cost $2.95. and the delivery charge was $8.50.
Delivery is a one time charge.
Let the number of roses ordered be = x
We get the following equation;
[tex]2.95x+8.50=61.60[/tex]
Solving for x now;
[tex]2.95x=61.60-8.50[/tex]
=> [tex]2.95x=53.10[/tex]
Dividing both sides by 2.95, we get;
x = 18
Therefore, Romeo ordered 18 roses.
