Then substitute that into the second equation and solve for a number value for h 5 (650-5h)/4 + 6h = 800 (3250-25h)/4 + 6h = 800 Multiply both sides by 4 3250-25h + 24h = 3200 -h = -50 h = 50
Take that 50 and substitute it into the expression we have for c to get a number value for c
C= 650-5(50)/4 C = 650-250/4 C = 400/4 C= 100
Check your first equations, substituting $50 for the helpers and $100 for the chefs.
