Oliver is going to send some flowers to his wife. Fairfax Florist charges $1 per rose, plus $33 for the vase. Amy's Flowers, in contrast, charges $2 per rose and $21 for the vase. If Oliver orders the bouquet with a certain number of roses, the cost will be the same with either flower shop. How many roses would there be? What would the total cost be?

Answer:

12 flowers

cost is $45

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up a system of equations and set them equal to each other.

F = 33 + x

A = 21 + 2x

33 + x = 21 + 2x

move numbers to one side and x's to the other side to solve for x = 12

Put 12 back in each equation to get the cost.
