Answer 2

Answer:

The cost of a chair is Rs 560 and cost of a table is Rs 700

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that 5 chairs and 4 tables together cost rs 5600,while 4 chairs and 3 tables together cost rs 4340.

we have to find the cost of a chair and that of a tables.

Let the cost of chairs=Rs x

and the cost of chairs=Rs y

According to statement,

$5x+4y=5600$    →     (1)

$4x+3y=4340$     →     (2)

Solving equation (1) and (2)

4(eq 1)-5(eq 2)

⇒ $20x+16y-20x-15y=22400-21700$

⇒ $y=700$

Hence, x=560

Hence, the cost of a chair is Rs 560 and cost of a table is Rs 700
