costco is selling small and large bouguets of roses. 1 small bouquet and 6 large bouquets cost $372. 4 small bouquets and 12 large bouquets cost $780. How much does each small and large bouquets cost?

Sagot :

Based on the information given, it can be seen that the small bouquets cost $18 and the large bouquets cost $59.

  • Let the small bouquets be s.
  • Let the large bouquets be l.

Based on the information given, the equation to solve the question will be:

s + 6l = 372 .... i

4s + 12l = 780 .... ii

From equation I, s = 372 - 6l

Since 4s + 12l = 780

4(372 - 6l) + 12l = 780

1488 - 24l + 12l = 780

-12l = -708

l  = 708/12

l = 59

Since s + 6l = 372

s + 6(59) = 372

s + 354 = 372

s = 372 - 354

s = 18
