Answer:
Bag of windflower bulbs costs $8.50
Package of crocus bulbs costs $17.60
Step-by-step explanation:
Let $x be the price of one bag of windflower bulbs and $y be the price of one package of crocus bulbs.
1. Mark sold 2 bags of windflower bulbs for $2x and 5 packages of crocus bulbs for $5y. In total he earned $(2x+5y) that is $105. So,
2x+5y=105
2. Julio sold 9 bags of windflower bulbs for $9x and 5 packages of crocus bulbs for $5y. In total he earned $(9x+5y) that is $164.50. So,
9x+5y=164.50
3. You get the system of two equations:

From the first equation

Substitute it into the second equation:
9x+105-2x=164.50
7x=164.50-105
7x=59.5
x=$8.50
So,
5y=105-2·8.5
5y=105-17
5y=88
y=$17.60
The answer is -18. Hope this helps.
So percent means parts out of 100 so 75%=75/100=3/4
3/4 of 30
'of' means multiply
3/4 times 30=90/4=45/2=22.5
22.5 is the answer (or 22 and 1/2)
So your equation is a composite function. It means to plug 1.5 as x into g(x), then the answer you get for that, plug into h(x).
So.
g(1.5)=8-3(1.5)
=8-4.5
=3.5
Then.
H(3.5)=2x+5
=2(3.5)+5
=7+5=12
Your final answer is 12.
