Question 1171741: Please help me (other email was wrong in question)
A party rental company has chairs and tables for rent. The total cost to rent 2 chairs and 3 tables is $31. The total cost to rent 6 chairs and 5 tables is $59. What is the cost to rent each chair and each table?
Answer by math_helper(2461) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Looking at costs, you can immediately write:
2C + 3T = 31
6C + 5T = 59
Solve these to C=$2.75 and T=$8.50.
If you need help solving for T, tou can multiply (both sides of) the
first equation by 3 then subtract that result from the 2nd equation,
that will give you T.
