Answer:
They charge $35 per person.
Step-by-step explanation:
If they made $1,330 and 38 people came that afternoon then
$1,330 divided by 38
= $35
Let C = cost to rent each chairLet T = cost to rent each table
4C + 8T = 73
2C + 3T = 28
Multiply the 2nd equation by (-2) and then add the equations together
4C + 8T = 73
-4C - 6T = -56
2T = 17T = 17/2 = 8.5
Plug this in to the 1st equation to solve for C
4C + 8(17/2) = 73
4C + 68 = 73
4C = 5C = 5/4 = 1.25
So the cost to rent each chair is $1.25 and the cost to rent each table is $8.50
First you express it as a fraction so that would be 2475/1000 which can be simplified to 99/40
let x = the distance from Delany's house to the mall
so half the distance would be 1/2x
then it is 5 miles less than that so you would subtract 5 to give you 1/2x-5
and that is more than 6 miles so you get 1/2x-5>6
