B=cost per boquet
v=cost per vase

3b+5v=25.75
8b+2v=29.00

use eliminateion
divide 2nd equation by 2
4b+v=14.50
multiply it by -5 and add to other equation to eliminate v

-20b-5v=-72.5
<span><u>3b+5v=25.75 +</u></span><u />
-17b+0v=-46.75

-17b=-46.75
divide both sides by -17
b=2.75

a boquet costs $2.75
