Answer:
hosta = $5 each
geranium = $2 each
Step-by-step explanation:
Hi, to answer this question we have to write a system of equations:
Leas's cost: 11 h + 7 g = 69
Elisa’s cost: 10h + 7g = 64
Where h is the price of one hosta and g is the price of one geranium.
Subtracting Elisa's cost to Leas's cost:
11 h + 7 g = 69
-
10h + 7g = 64
____________
h = $5
Replacing h in one equation:
11 (5) + 7 g = 69
55 +7g =69
7g = 69-55
7g= 14
g= 14/7
g= $2
