Answer:
y=6/5x+6
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
22.5 repeated
Step-by-step explanation:
43x+2=64+455−766
Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.
43x+2=64+455−766
43x+2=64+455+−766
43x+2=(64+455+−766)(Combine Like Terms)
43x+2=−247
43x+2=−247
Step 2: Subtract 2 from both sides.
43x+2−2=−247−2
43x=−249
Step 3: Divide both sides by 43.
43x

Answer:
x = −249

If you assign variables to the problem, it can make things a lot simpler. Lets say chairs are x and tables are y. Therefore you have:
2x+6y=40
5x+3y=25
Now you can isolate the variable of one equation and put it into another (it doesn't matter which. I'm going to manipulate the top equation to plug into the bottom one).
2x=40-6y
x=20-3y
Now I plug into bottom equatioin:
5(20-3y) + 3y=25
100-15y+3y=25
100-12y=25
-12y=-75
y=$6.25
Now you can plug in y in either equation to get x.
2x+6(6.25)=40
37.5+2x=40
2x=2.5
x=1.25
So it costs $6.25 for each table and $1.25 for each chair. If you think about it, it would make sense for the table to cost more for the chair.
