Answer:
154
Step-by-step explanation:
.4 x 112 = 280
.95 x 266 = 280
.55 x 280 = 154
C= chair cost
t= table cost
Create two equations with the given information. Solve for one variable in equation one. Substitute that answer in equation two. Then you can solve for the needed information.
3c+2t=$18
5c+6t=$48
3c+2t=18
Subtract 2c from both sides
3c=18-2t
Divide both sides by 3
c=(18-2t)/3
Substitute the value for c in equation two:
5c+6t=$48
5((18-2t)/3)+6t=48
(90-10t)/3+6t=48
Multiply everything by 3 to eliminate fraction
(3)((90-10t)/3)+(3)(6t)=(3)(48)
90-10t+18t=144
90+8t=144
Subtract 90 from both sides
8t=54
Divide both sides by 8
t=$6.75 cost for table
Substitute the t value to solve for c:
3c+2t=18
3c+2(6.75)=18
3c+13.50=18
3c=4.50
c=$1.50 chair cost
Check:
5c+6t=$48
5(1.50)+6(6.75)=48
7.50+40.50=48
48=48
Hope this helps! :) If it does, please mark as brainliest.

Hi there! An equation for this problem would look something like
12d=75
Since the farmer can harvest 12 acres per day, the variable d represents days. 12 times the number of days it would take to harvest the field would equal 75.
