Answer:

The rental cost of one movie is $2.25 and the rental cost of one video game is $6.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the rental cost of 1 movie be m.

Let the rental cost of 1 video game be v.

One month, Tammy rented 2 movies and 6 video games for a total of $42. This means that:

2m + 6v = 42 ________ (1)

The next month she rented 5 movies and 3 video games for a total of $30. This means that:

5m + 3v = 30 _________(2)

We now have two simultaneous equations:

2m + 6v = 42 ________ (1)

5m + 3v = 30 _________(2)

Multiply (2) by 2, and we have:

2m + 6v = 42 __________ (1)

10m + 6v = 60 _________ (3)

Subtract (1) from (3):

 10m + 6v = 60

-<u> 2m + 6v = 42</u>

 <u>  8m     =     18</u>

=> m = 18 / 8

m = $2.25

Put the value of m back in (1):

2(2.25) + 6v = 42

4.5 + 6v = 42

=> 6v = 42 - 4.5 = 37.5

v = 37.5 / 6

v = $6.25

Therefore, the rental cost of one movie is $2.25 and the rental cost of one video game is $6.25
