HELP HELP HELP PLEASE A party rental company has chairs and tables for rent. The total cost to rent 2 chairs and 3 tables is $31. The total cost to rent 6 chairs and 5 tables is $59
What is the cost to rent each chair and each table?

The rental of each chair is $2.75

The rental of each table is $8.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's name the unknowns "c" for the cost of each chair rental, and "t" for the cost of each table rental.

Now we can create the equations that represent the statements:

a) "The total cost to rent 2 chairs and 3 tables is $31."

2 c + 3 t = 31

b) "The total cost to rent 6 chairs and 5 tables is $59."

6 c + 5 t = 59

now we have a system of two equations and two unknowns that we proceed to solve via the elimination method by multiplying the first equation we got by "-3" so by adding it term by term to the second equation, we eliminate the variable "c" and solve for "t":

(-3) 2 c + (-3) 3 t = (-3)  31

-6 c - 9 t = -93

6 c + 5 t = 59

both these equations added give:

0 - 4 t = -34

t = 34/4 = 8.5

So each table rental is $8.5

now we find the rental price of a chair by using any of the equations:

2 c + 3 t = 31

2 c + 3 (8.5) = 31

2 c + 25.5 = 31

2 c = 5.5

c = 5.5/2

c = $2.75

step-by-step explanation:

the answer is y < -3 or   y > 3

-3y > 7 + 2

-3 y > 9

y < -3
