Answer:

Selection to make is C, D, E

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the cost of a package of tulip bulbs be $x while the cost of a package of daffodil bulbs be $y

10 tulip = $10x

14 bulbs = $14y

The addition of both gives a total $402

10x + 14y = 402 •••••••(i)

11 tulip = $11x

4 dudafodil = $4y

Total is 237

11x + 4y = 237 ••••••••(ii)

So let’s solve to get the value of x and y

10x + 14y = 402

11x + 4y = 237

Divide equation 1 by 2

5x + 7y = 201

11x + 4y = 237

Multiply equation 1 by 4 and 2 by 7

20x + 28y = 804

77x + 28y = 1659

Subtract i from ii

57x = 855

x = 855/57

x = 15

Recall;

5x + 7y = 201

5(15) + 7y = 201

75 + 7y = 201

7y = 201-75

7y = 126

y = 126/7

y = 18

Cost of tulip is $15, cost of daffodil is $18
