crocus bulbs.

Answer:

Package of tulip bulbs = $12

Package of crocus = $19

Step-by-step explanation:

Let b = cost of a package of bulbs

     c = cost of a crocus package

Mark:   (1)   9b + c = 127          Huong:  (2)   6b + 6c = 186

                          c = 127 - 9b                        6b + 6(127 - 9b) = 186

                                                                      6b + 762 - 54b = 186

                                                                                      - 48b = -576

                                                                                           b = 12

                          c = 127 -9(12)

                          c = 127 - 108 = 19
