Answer:
A lily costs $7 and a geranium $4.
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question, we can write two equations. let the number of lilies be l and the number of geraniums be g, then:
5
g
+
4
l
=
48
4
g
+
6
l
=
58
Multiply the first equation by 4 and the second by 5, the number of lilies in the other gives:
20
g
+
16
l
=
192
20
g
+
30
l
=
290
Subtract the first equation from the second gives:
14
l
=
98 which dividing by 14 gives l
=
7
Substituting the value l
=
7 in the first equation gives:
5
g
+
28
=
48
Subtract 20 from both sides gives:
5
g
=
20 divide by 5 gives g
=
4
So, a lily costs $7 and a geranium costs $4.
There is 15 bars in each case.
Subtract 8 from 143 and you get 135.
Divide 135 by 9 and you get 15 :)

Simplifying the given expression, it is found that Curtis is correct.
<h3>How to simplify the expression?</h3>
The expression to be simplified is given by:
[4(10) - 3²] + 6(4)
The non-related operations can be solved first, hence:
[4(10) - 3²] + 6(4) = [40 - 9] + 24
For the square, we have to consider that:
- For -x², the negative is not part of the square, hence the result is negative, as - x*x = -x².
- For (-x)², the negative is part of the square, hence the result is positive, as (-x)*(-x) = x².
The first bullet point is the reason that -3² = 9. Then, the simplified expression is completed as follows:
[40 - 9] + 24 = 31 + 24 = 55.
Which means that Curtis is correct.
