A) write an expression for the number of tulips he can plant
B) he planted 36 tulips. form an equation in terms of t
C) solve the equation to find the number of tulips in each bag

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

total number of tulips in each bag:- t

total bags:- 5

total number of tulips in 5 bags:- 5t

number of tulips damaged :- 9 tulips

(A) number of tulips left out and he can plant :- 5t - 9

(B) number of tulips he planted:- 36 tulips

  so ,   5t-9-36 = 0

(C) solution ::-         5t-9 = 36

                             5t = 45

                                t= 45/5        

                               t= 9
