Answer:


\$117.25

Explanation:

The complete question is

Paloma has a flower stand at a farmer's market. On Tuesday, she sold 8 marigold flats and 10 daisy flats. An hour before closing, she sold 5 bunches of roses at half price and 2 bunches of lilies for 1/3 of the price. Evaluate a numerical expression to find out how much money Paloma made

The price of Marigold(M) is $5.75.

The price of Daisy(D) is $6.25.

The price of Roses(R) is $2.50.

The price of Lilies(L) is $3.75

we know that

The price of Marigold multiplied by 8 plus the price of Daisy multiplied by 10 plus the an half price of Roses multiplied by 5 plus 1/3 of the price of Lilies multiplied by 2 must be equal to the amount of money Paloma made on Tuesday

so


8(5.75\$)+10(\$6.25)+5(1/2)(\$2.50)+2(1/3)(\$3.75)\\\$46+\$62.5+\$6.25+\$2.50\\\$117.25
