Question 1175278: A florist is making 5 identical bridesmaid bouquets for a
wedding. She has $610 to spend (including tax) and
wants 24 flowers for each bouquet. Roses cost $6 each, tulips
cost $4 each, and lilies cost $3 each. She wants to have twice
as many roses as the other 2 flowers combined in each
bouquet. Obtain the rank of the coefficient matrix of the
phenomena
Answer by CubeyThePenguin(3113)   (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! roses = r, tulips = t, lilies = l
r + t + l = 24
6r + 4t + 3l = 610
r = 2(t + l)
There are 3 equations and 3 variables, so you can solve.
