Let m be the rental cost for movies.
Let v be the rental cost for video games.
We have the following system of linear equations:
3m + 5v= 38
6m + 2v = 26
Multiply the first equation by 2
6m + 10v = 76
6m + 2v = 26
Subtract the both equations.
8v = 50
Divide both sides by 50.
v = 6.25
Plug this value into any of the two equations to solve for m.
You get m=2.25
The rental cost for a movie is
<h2>$2.25</h2>
The rental cost for a video game is
<h2>$6.25
</h2>
Have an awesome day! :)
