Q3) there are 42 roses, 24 sunflowers, and 33 marigolds in a flowershop.all the flowers were
equally distributed in the baskets find the greatest number of flowers that each basket can have.

greatest number of flowers in each basket is 3

x = -

y = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

When given the following system:

y = 3x + 4

y + 6x = 3x

Use inverse operations so that both equations are solve for one variable,

y = 3x + 4

y = -3x

Add the systems so that one of the variables (x) cancels, this process is called the process of elimination;

y = 3x + 4

y = -3x

_________

2y = 4

Inverse operations,

2y = 4

y = 2

Now backsolve, find the value of (x) by substituting the value of (y) into the equation:

y = -3x

2 = -3x

x = -
