Lea and alberto are selling flower bulbs for a fundraiser. customers can buy bags of windflowers bulbs and packages of crocus bulbs. lea sold 9 bags of windflower bulbs and 10 packages of crocus bulbs for a total of $201. alberto sold 7 bags of windflower bulbs and 3 packages of crocus bulbs for a total of $99. what is the cost each of one bad of windflower bulbs and one package of crocus bulbs

Each package of windflower bulbs costs $9 and each package of crocus bulb costs $12.

Step-by-step explanation:

Lea sold 9 bags of windflower bulbs and 10 packages of crocus bulbs for a total of $201 and Alberto sold 7 bags of windflower bulbs and 3 packages of crocus bulbs for a total of $99.

If each package of windflower bulbs costs $x and each package of crocus bulb costs $y, then we can write the equations  

9x + 10y = 201 (1)  

⇒  63x + 70y = 1407 (2) and

7x + 3y = 99 (3)  

⇒ 63x + 27y = 891 (4)

Now, solving equations (2) and (4) we get,  

70y - 27y = 1407 - 891

⇒ 43y = 516

⇒ y = 12

And from equation (3) we get,

7x = 99 - 3y = 99 - 3 × 12 = 63

⇒ x = 9

Therefore, each package of windflower bulbs costs $9 and each package of crocus bulb costs $12. (Answer)

step-by-step explanation:

(f - g)(x) = 5x^3 - 3

step-by-step explanation:

rearrange these functions vertically, with like terms in separate columns:

f(x) = 5x^3 - 2

g(x) =         +1

now subtract, column by column:

(f - g)(x) = 5x^3 - 3
