Answer: 16 double rooms and 10 single rooms were rented.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of double rooms that were rented.
Let y represent the number of single rooms that were rented.
The total number of rooms rented in a day is 26. It means that
x + y = 26
A motel rents double rooms at $34 per day and single rooms at $26 per day. If all the rooms that were rented for one day cost a total of $804, it means that
34x + 26y = 804 - - - - - - - - - - -1
Substituting x = 26 - y into equation 1, it becomes
34(26 - y) + 26y = 804
884 - 34y + 26y = 804
- 34y + 26y = 804 - 884
- 8y = - 80
y = - 80/ - 8 = 10
x = 26 - y = 26 - 10
x = 16
The answer to this question is 36
