Amount of liquid plant fertilizer in the container that the gardener has = 6 1/5 pounds
= 31/5 pounds
We already know that 1 pound = 16 ounce
Then
Amount of liquid plant fertilizer in the
container that the gardener has = (31/5) * 16 ounce
= 496/5 pounds
Amount of liquid plant fertilizer that the gardener uses on Sunday = 2 1/2 ounces
= 5/2 ounces
Then
The amount of liquid plant fertilizer that are left= (496/5) - (5/2) ounces
= (992 - 25)/10 ounces
= 967/10 ounces
= 96.7 ounces
So the total amount of liquid plant fertilizer left is 96.7 ounces.

Answer: She should use 12 ounces of Sweet Rose Tulsi tea and 4 ounces of Orange blossom green tea.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of ounces of Sweet Rose Tulsi tea that she should use.
Let y represent the number of ounces of Orange blossom green tea that she should use.
She wants to blend 16 ounces of the tea blend. It means that
x + y = 16
x = 16 - y
Sweet rose tea sells for $4.98 an ounce and Orange Blossom sells for $1.98 an ounce. If the the tea blend is to sell for $4.23 per ounce, then the 16 ounces would be sold for 16 × 4.23 = 67.68
it means that
4.98x + 1.98y = 67.68- - - - - - - - - - -1
Substituting x = 16 - y into equation 1, it becomes
4.98(16 - y) + 1.98y = 67.68
79.68 - 4.98y + 1.98y = 67.68
- 4.98y + 1.98y = 67.68 - 79.68
- 3y = - 12
y = - 12/-3
y = 4
x = 16 - y = 16 - 4
x = 12
