Answer:

c=cost of one chair rental

t=cost of one table rental

8c+3t=42

2c+5t=53

multiply the second equation, each term on both sides, by -4

8c+3t=42

-8c-20t=-212

add the two equations

-17t=-170

divide both sides by -17

t=$10 to rent one table

substitute t=10 into either original equation

2c+5(10)=53

2c+50=53

2c=3

c=$1.50 to rent one chair

Please help thank you so so so much <br><br> there is more than one answer
Luden [163]

Answer:

B and C work. A and D do not.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is one of those questions that you have to go through each answer to see what the results are. You don't have to go far to eliminate A and D so let's do that first.

A]

5n + 6

Let n = 1

5(1) + 6

5 + 6= 11

However there is trouble beginning with n = 2

5*2 + 6

10 + 6

16     All you need is one wrong answer and the choice is toast. So A won't work.

================

Try D

6(n - 1)+ 5

n=0

6*(-1) + 5

-6 + 5

- 1

And D has been eliminated with just 1 attempt. n= 2 or n = 1 would be even worse.  D is not one of the answers.

=============

B

Let n = 1

6(1) + 5

6 + 5

11 The first term works.

n = 2

6*(2) + 5

12 + 5

17 and n = 2 works as well. Just in case it is hard to believe, let's try n = 3 because so far, everything is fine.

n = 3

6*(3) + 5

18 + 5

23 And this also works. I'll let you deal with n = 4

========

C

n = 0

6(0 + 1) + 5

6*1 + 5

6 + 5

11

n = 1

6(1 + 1) + 5

6*2 + 5

12 + 5

17 which works.

So C is an answer.

2/3 of the bedspread is covered in race cars , therefore

1/3 of the bedspread is covered in stripes

2/4 x 1/3 = 2 / 12 = 1/6
