Answer:
Haircuts cost $50.33
Hair Color costs $80.33
Step-by-step explanation:
Let haircut be cost "a"
coloring be cost "b"
2 haircut, 4 coloring equals 422, we can write:
2a + 4b = 422 {Equation 1}
5 haircut, 4 coloring, equals 573, we can write:
5a + 4b = 573 {Equation 2}
We now multiply equation 1 with -1 and add it with Equation 2 to get:
-1(2a + 4b = 422) = -2a - 4b = -422
Now,
-2a - 4b = -422
5a + 4b = 573
----------------------
3a = 151
a = 151/3 = $50.33
Now, to find b, we plug in this value into any equation and solve for b:
2a + 4b = 422
2(50.33) + 4b = 422
4b = 422 - 100.66
b = $80.33
Haircuts cost $50.33
