Answer: Answer is In the step-by-step EXPLANATION.

Step-by-step explanation: Let's Begin,

Amanda and Ndiba are selling flower bulbs for a school fundraiser. Customers can buy packages of tulip bulbs and bags of daffodil bulbs. Amanda sold 6 packages of tulip bulbs and 12 bags of daffodil bulbs for a total of $198.

6t + 12d = 198

Ndiba sold 7 packages of tulip bulbs and 6 bags of daffodil bulbs for a total of $127.

7t + 6d = 127

So when you find, the cost of each package of tulips bulbs and one bag of daffodil bulbs.

Use elimination here, multiply the 2nd equation by 2, subtract the 1st equation

14t + 12d = 254

Then, 6t + 12d = 198 -subtraction eliminates d, find t

8t + 0 = 56

t = 56/8

t = $7 for tulips

Find d using the 1st equation, t=7

6(7) + 12d = 198

42 + 12 d = 198

12d = 198 - 42

d = 156/12

d = $13 for daffodils

And I think that's it.
