Answer:

lamp: $80
end table: $140

Step-by-step explanation:

If we let x and y represent the costs of a lamp and end table, respectively, the two purchases can be written as ...

3x +2y = 520

2x -y = 20

These equations can be solved many ways. If we use "elimination", we can add twice the second equation to the first to eliminate y:

(3x +2y) +2(2x -y) = (520) +2(20)

7x = 560 . . . . simplify

x = 80 . . . . . . divide by 7

y = 2x -20 = 2(80) -20 = 140

The cost of a lamp is $80; the cost of an end table is $140.

Answer:

I'm just going to assume that your answer is correct since you didn't attach the question. If you are submitting this to your teacher then you are going to want to have correct spelling and grammar. The slang usage isn't professional, but if your teacher is fine with it then you should only worry about spelling. Hope this helped you!!
