Answer:

The cost to rent each chair and each table are $1.5 and $8.75 respectively

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent 1 chair

Let y represent 1 table

Therefore

3x + 2y = 22   ------------(1)

5x + 6y = 60   ------------(2)

Multiply (1) by 5 and (2) by 3

15x + 10y = 110   ----------(3)

15x + 18y = 180  ------------(4)

Subtract (3) from (4)

8y = 70

Divide through by 8

y = $8.75

Substitute y = 8.75 in (1)

3x + 2y = 22

3x + 2(8.75) = 22

3x + 17.5 = 22

Collect like terms

3x = 22 - 17.5

3x = 4.5

Divide through by 3

x =$1.5

jonny [76]

Answer:

18.6 months

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Best fit line from scatterplot :

y=-12.05x +224.26

x = Number of month

y = charge on battery

Number of months a typical battery uses before being dead completely :

When battery is dead completely ; charge =0, y = 0

y = -12.05x + 224.26

0 = - 12.05x + 224.26

12.05x = 224.26

x = 224.26 / 12.05

x = 18.610788

Hence, 18.6 months before battery is completely dead.
