cc = 4 + 3 = 7 chairs

Answer 2

Answer:

Hence, the total number of chairs that Taylor can get for her dining room is:

37 chairs.

Step-by-step explanation:

Taylor has $320 to pay for dining room chairs.

She expects to pay about $80 per chair.

Her friend told her that she has 33 that Taylor can have for free.

Let 'c' represent the total chairs.

Let she buys 'x' chairs for price.

i.e. 80x=320

dividing both side by 80 we get:

x=4.

Hence, she buys 4 chair for $ 80 each.

Also,

Total number of chair she will have for dining room is:

c=4+33=37

( Since she get 33 chairs for free)

Hence, the total number of chairs that Taylor can get for her dining room is:

37 chairs.
