Ответ:
The students bought 16 azaleas plants.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
Total plants bought by student council = 36
Cost of each azaleas plant = $6
Cost of each lily plant = $5
Total amount spent = $196
Let,
x be the number of azaleas
y be the number of lilies
x+y = 36 Eqn 1
6x+5y=196 Eqn 2
Multiplying Eqn 1 by 6
6(x+y=36)
6x+6y=216 Eqn 3
Subtracting Eqn 2 from Eqn 3
(6x+6y)-(6x+5y)=216-196
6x+6y-6x-5y=20
y=20
Putting y=20 in Eqn 1
x+20=36
x=36-20
x=16
Hence,
The students bought 16 azaleas plants.
