Question

Maplewood Furniture Store is having a sale on dining room furniture. When a customer purchases a set of dining chairs, a one-time discount of $55 is applied to the total. During the sale, Rhianna buys a set of 6 chairs that match the table she inherited from her grandmother. Rhianna pays $455 in all.
Which equation can you use to find the regular cost, c, of each chair?

Answers

GPT 3.5
Let the regular cost of each chair be c.
Since Rhianna receives a one-time discount of $55 on the total, the total cost of the chairs after the discount is (6c - 55).
Rhianna pays $455 in all, therefore, we can set up the equation:
6c - 55 = 455
