Question

A party rental company has chairs and tables the total cost for two chairs three tables is 25 the total cost for 6 chairs and 5 tables is 49 what is the cost of each chair each table

Answer 1

2C+3T = 25

6C+5T = 49 multiply 1st equation by 3 and subtract from 2nd equation

6C+9T = 75

4T = 75-49 = 26

T= 26/4 = $6.50 per table

2C = 25-3(6.5) =25-19.5 = 5.5

C = 5.5/2 = $2.75 per chair

6(2.75)+9(6.5) = 75
