Step-by-step explanation:

Given information is :

Two varieties of maple trees have been selected.

Let the first variety of trees be = x

Let the second colorful variety of trees be = y

One variety costs $75 per tree;

The other more colorful variety costs $90 per tree;

Given is - The tree budget must not exceed $70,000. This means the total cost of the trees should be less than or equal to 70000.

Thus, the equation forms:

Also given is - Citizens want more of the colorful $90 trees than the others if possible.

The equation will be :

or

1 x=22.52

2: 65/39=604+39x

65x-39x=604

26x=604

x=604/26

×=23.23

total amount to be paid = $19.5

step-by-step explanation:

given ,

original price = $25.99

discount = 25%

discount amount = 25% of original price

discount amount = 25/100   * 25.99

discount amount = $6.49

hence , the total amount to be paid = original price - discount amount

                                                            = $25.99 - $6.49

                                                            =$19.5

total amount to be paid = $19.5
