4t+2c=200
2t+7c=400

I will solve for c in terms of t first
4t+2c=200
2c=200-4t
c=100-2t

Then I will substitute this in for c in the second equation to make it single variable
2t+7c=400
2t+7(100-2t)=400
2t+700-14t=400
300t=12
t=25 
Tables cost $25 each

Plug t back into one of the ORIGINAL equations to find the cost of chairs
4(25)+2c=200
100+2c=200
2c=100
c=50
Chairs cost $50 each

Hope this helps! :)

Pat’s Potato Farm grew 490 pounds of potatoes. Pat delivered 3/7 of the potatoes to a vegetable stand. The owner of the vegetabl
madam [21]

Answer:

14

Step-by-step explanation:

I first multiplied 490 by 3/7

giving me 1470/7

I divide 1470 by 7 giving me 210

As I got 210

I multiplied 210 with 2 and got 410/3

I divided 410 by 3, getting 140.

It then said half of what was delivered was put into 5 pound bags, so

140× 1/2 or 140÷2 is 70

70 divided by 5 is 14

They made 14 5-pound bags.
