    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
