Answer: it cost a customer $7.25 to buy five tulips and $10.5 to buy six roses.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the cost of 1 tulip.

Let y represent the cost of 1 rose.

The price of each tulip is the same and the price of each roses the same. One customer bought seven tulips and nine roses for $25.90. This means that

7x + 9y = 25.9 - - - - - - - - - - - - - - 1

Another customer bought for four tulips and eight roses for $19.80. This means that

4x + 8y = 19.8- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - 2

Multiplying equation 1 by 4 and equation 2 by 7, it becomes

28x + 36y = 103.6

28x + 56y = 138.6

Subtracting, it becomes

- 20y = - 35

y = - 35/ - 20

y = 1.75

Substituting y = 1.75 into equation 2, it becomes

4x + 8 × 1.75 = 19.8

4x + 14 = 19.8

4x = 19.8 - 14 = 5.8

x = 5.8/4

x = 1.45

The cost of 5 tulips would be

1.45 × 5 = $7.25

The cost of 6 roses would be

1.75 × 6 = $10.5
