A friends is buying flowers for mother's day. Because it is her 38th birthday, your friend want to have 38 of her favorite flowers. Her favorite flowers are daisies at 1.50 each and tulips at 2.50 each if the total bill was 67, how many of tulips were bought

She bought 28 daises and 10 Tulips.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of daises bought.

Let y represent the number of tulips bought.

Your friend want to have 38 of her favorite flowers. This means that

x + y = 38

Her favorite flowers are daisies at 1.50 each and tulips at 2.50 each if the total bill was 67, it means that

1.5x + 2.5y = 67 - - - - - - - - - - - - 1

Substituting x = 38 - y into equation 1, it becomes

1.5(38 - y) + 2.5y = 67

57 - 1.5y + 2.5y = 67

- 1.5y + 2.5y = 67 - 57

y = 10

x = 38 - y = 38 - 10

x = 28
