Answer:

16.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

file cabinet = 50

chair = 90

Step-by-step explanation:

x = chair

y = file cabinet

1st year, solve for x

2x+4y = 380

2x = 380 - 4y

x = 190 - 2y

2nd year

Now substitute x = 190 - 2y in your 2nd year formula

4x+6y = 660

4(190-2y)+6y = 660

760 - 8y + 6y = 660

-2y = -100

y = 50

The cost of the filling cabinet is 50 each

Now use the value for y (50) in your first formula to get x

2x+4y=380

2x+4*50=380

2x=380-200

2x=180

x=90
