Answer:

The cost of each tree is $95

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x -----> the cost of each tree in dollars

we know that

The number of plants multiplied by the cost of each plant plus the number of trees multiplied by the cost of each tree must be equal to $964

so

[tex]17(12)+8x=964[/tex]

Solve for x

[tex]204+8x=964[/tex]

subtract 204 both sides

[tex]8x=964-204[/tex]

[tex]8x=760[/tex]

Divide by 8 both sides

[tex]x=\$95[/tex]

therefore

The cost of each tree is $95
