A party rental company has chairs and tables for rent. The total cost to rent 5 chairs and 2 tables is $23 . The total cost to rent 3 chairs and 8 tables is $58. What is the cost to rent each chair and each table? -Cost to rent each chair:$___-Cost to rent each table:$___

Answer:chair: $2.00table: $6.50Step-by-step explanation:The two different rentals give rise to two equations. Let t and c represent the rental costs of a table and chair, respectively. The rentals are ...   5c +2t = 23   3c +8t = 58Cramer's rule tells you ...   c = (2·58 -8·23)/(2·3-8·5) = -68/-34 = 2.00   t = (23·3 -58·5)/-34 = -221/-34 = 6.50The cost to rent each chair is $2.00.The cost to rent each table is $6.50._____Cramer's Rule says the solution to   ax +by = c   dx +ey = gis ...   x = (bg -ec)/(bd -ea)   y = (cd -ga)/(bd -ea)When the equation's coefficients are not convenient to achieve elimination of a variable, Cramer's rule can get to the solution very quickly. The same number of math operations are involved, but they are expressed in terms of a formula that can be used with no guesswork.
