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

we know that
2b+2v=12.50-----> </span>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

frozen [14]

Answer:

The perimeter of the kitchen wall = 60 b

Step-by-step explanation:

The number if tiles used in the length side of the square walk = 5 tiles

The length of 1 tiles  = 3 b

So, the length of 5 tiles = 5 x ( Length of 1 tile)  

= 5 x (3 b)  =  15 b

So, the length of the square walk = 1 5 b

Perimeter of SQUARE  = 4 x SIDES

⇒ Perimeter of the wall  = 4 x (Side)

                                        = 4 x (15 b)  = 60 b

Hence, the perimeter of the kitchen wall = 60 b

Alborosie
Ok, so she started off with $5.00. 


She bought milk for $2.99.

She buys bread, which costs $1.50. 

Subtracting the money she wasted, the total would be $0.51. 

The only thing she could buy is 5 pieces of gum for 25 cents. 

Her change will be $0.26. 

Hope this helps!
