Question

using two variable only solve the following: the cost of table is more than that of a chair by 500 rupees. one table and two chairs together cost rupees 1400. find the cost of table.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Table = 800 and Chair = 300

Step-by-step explanation:

Table = X

And Chair = Y (Suppose)

Then, X = Y + 500

And X + 2Y = 1400

By substitution,

Y + 500 + 2Y = 1400

3Y = 900

Y = 300

And X = 800
