What's the price of a flower bouquet?

Respuesta :

The price of a flower bouquet is $2.75 according to the information on the question above. This problem can be solved using two linear equations with two different variables based on the transaction. The first equation is 3x +5y= 25.75 and the second equation is 8x+2y=29 which can be simplified as y=14.5-4x. You can find the x by substituting the "y" variable on the first with the second equation resulting in "x =2.75" which is the price of the flower bouquet.
