Answer:

Bushes= $27

Trees= $34

Step-by-step explanation:

13 bushes and 4 trees total to $487

6 bushes and 2 trees total to $230

Let x be bushes and y be trees hence forming set of simultaneous equation then

13x+4y=487

6x+2y=230

From the second equation

3x+y=230

y=115-3x

Substituting y into first equation then

13x+4(115-3x)=487

13x+460-12x=487

x=487-460

x=27

since y=115-3x

y=115-3(27)=34
