Solving a Linear System
A discount store is selling 5 small tables with 8 chairs for $115. Three tables with 5 chairs cost $70.
Question 1
Which system of linear equations could be used to find the cost of each table (x) and the cost of each chair (y)?
Responses
A 3x + 8y = $70; 8x + 3y = $1153x + 8y = $70; 8x + 3y = $115
B 5x + 8y = $115; 3x + 5y = $705x + 8y = $115; 3x + 5y = $70
C 5x + 8y = $115; 2x − 5y = $705x + 8y = $115; 2x − 5y = $70
D 8x + 5y = $115; 5x + 3y = $708x + 5y = $115; 5x + 3y = $70
Question 2
Determine the cost of each table (x) and the cost of each chair (y).
Responses
A x = $15; y = $5x = $15; y = $5
B x = $10; y = $5x = $10; y = $5
C x = $5; y = $10x = $5; y = $10
D x = $12; y = $3x = $12; y = $3
