Answer 1

Princeton Florist

Let the total charge is y, the number of small arrangements is x.

Total charge will be:

• y = 13x + 47

Chad's Flowers

Total charge will be:

• y = 17x + 35

Since the total charge is same in both shops, we have:

• 13x + 47 = 17x + 35

Solve for x:

• 17x - 13x = 47 - 35
• 4x = 12
• x = 3

Total cost is:

• 13*3 + 47 = 39 + 47 = 86

Small arrangements = 3, cost = $86
