Let
b---------> the cost of one flower bouquet
v--------> the cost of one vase.

we know that
2b+2v=12.50-----> Multiplied by -1------------->-2b-2v=-12.50
8b+2v=29---------------------------------------------> 8b+2v=29
I add the two equations ------------------------
6b=16.50
b=2.75
2*2.75+2*v=12.50---------------> v=(12.50-5.5)/2---------> v=3.5

the answer is
the cost of one flower bouquet is $2.75
the cost of one vase is $3.5

While mining Fred found a large metal bar that contained 24 ounces of nickel. Fred also determined that the bar was 80% nickel.

Answer:

Not that I'm a chemistry expert but mathematically,The total weight of the bar is directly proportional to the known weight of the bar and the given percentage. I worked it out and found that the the total weight of the bar is 30 ounces. This is how I did it

Step-by-step explanation:

80:24

100:n

80(n)=100×24

A little equation and after it's solve the variable (n) will be equal to 30

The unit is added after calculations so that's how the answer is 30 ounces
