Let's make some variables to represent the cost of the tables and chairs.

Let x be equal to the cost of one chair
Let y be equal to the cost of one table

The total cost for 3 chairs and 2 tables is $17.

3x + 2y = 17

The total cost for 8 chairs and 4 tables is $37.

8x + 4y = 37

Now we have our system of equations.
Let's solve it.

3x + 2y = 17
8x + 4y = 37

We can cancel the y's very easily. Then it would just leave us with the x's.
Multiply the top equation by -2.

3x(-2) + 2y(-2) = 17(-2) = 
-6x - 4y =  -34

Then add the equations together.

-6x - 4y = -34
8x + 4y = 37
        =
2x = 3

Then just divide both sides by 2.

x = 1.5

Substitute 1.5 into one of the equation. I'll pick 3x + 2y = 17

3(1.5) + 2y = 17 ; Start
4.5 + 2y = 17      ; Multiply 3 and 1.5 together
2y = 12.5             ; Subtract 4.5 from each side of the equation
y = 6.25                ; Divide both sides by the coefficient of y. Which 2

So, a chair costs $1.50 and a table costs $6.25.

3+2 = 5
8 + 4  = 12 
37 / 12 = 3.08
5 / 17  = 3 .04 
so i would say 3 dollars

Angle 1 and angle 3 are vertically opposite angles. And both angles are congruent with each other.

<h3>What is an angle?</h3>

The angle is the distance between the intersecting lines or surfaces. The angle is also expressed in degrees. The angle is 360 degrees for one complete spin.

Supplementary angle - Two angles are said to be supplementary angles if their sum is 180 degrees.

Line L and line M intersect each other.

Angle 1 and angle 2 are supplementary angles.

∠1 + ∠2 = 180°         ...1

Angle 2 and angle 3 are supplementary angles.

∠2 + ∠3 = 180°        ...2

From equations 1 and 2, then we have

∠1 + ∠2 = ∠2 + ∠3

∠1 = ∠3

The vertically opposite angles are angle 1 and angle 3. Furthermore, the two angles line up perfectly.

More about the angled link is given below.

A radioactive substance decays according to the formula A=A0e^kt
Sholpan [36]
Without needing fancy formulas, we can conclude that after 10 years, half of the substance will be left.  So, we can make our own formula:
amount remaining = 1 / 2^(years/10)
So, after 5 years
amount remaining = 1 / 2^(5/10)
amount remaining = 1 / 2^(.5)
amount remaining = 1 / <span> <span> <span> 1.414213562 </span>
</span></span><span>amount remaining = 0.70711 * 20 grams
</span><span><span><span><span>amount remaining = </span>14.1421356237 grams

Answer:

Cost of 500 g of standard pack = € 7.50

Cost of 1 g of standard pack = 7.50/500

Cost of 100 g of standard pack = 7.50/500 ×100

= 7.50/5

= € 1.50

Hope it helps uh dear
