14x + 2y = $172
7x + 9y = $158 (x= grass sod y= ornamental grass)

14x + 2y= 172
14x + 18y= 316 (Multiply Equation 2 by 2 to eliminate x)
when you subtract both equations you get -16y= -144 therefore y=9
Final step: Plug in 14x + 2(9) = 172       14x=154      x=11
1 sq ft of grass sod costs $11 and one bunch of ornamental grass costs $9

<em>Answer:</em>

<em>d = 10</em>

<em>Step-by-step explanation:</em>
