Answer:

20$ For the Roses

Explanation:

Think about it like this. For each daisy (1$), the price is double for roses (2$).

Brad has a limit of 33$. And he bought 3 more daisies than roses.

If each daisy is 1$, and he bought 3+ over roses, take away 3$ to get 30$. If he bought 10 (excluding 3+) Daisies, He must have bought 10 roses.

(10 Daisies = 10$) + (10 Roses = 20$) = 30$

30$ + (3 Daisies = 3$) = 33$
