Problem 22
Dana is designing three large perennial flower beds for her yard and is planning to use combinations of three types of flowers. In her traditional cottage-style garden, Dana will include 7 purple coneflower plants, 6 yellow foxglove plants, and 8 white lupine plants at a total cost of 93.31 dollars. The flower bed around her deck will be planted with 12 yellow foxglove plants and 12 white lupine plants at a total cost of 126.00 dollars. A third garden area in a corner of Dana's yard will contain 4 purple coneflower plants, 5 yellow foxglove plants, and 7 white lupine plants at a total cost of 72.82 dollars. What is the price per plant for the coneflowers, the foxgloves, and the lupines?
