Answer:

  • $1.25 and $6.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the rental cost of each movie is x and each game is y.

Based on the given we have equations:

  • 2x + 6y = 40 and
  • 5x + 3y = 25

Solve by elimination.

Multiply the second equation by 2 and subtract the first equation:

  • 5x*2 + 3y*2 - 2x - 6y = 25*2 - 40
  • 10x - 2x + 6y - 6y = 50 - 40
  • 8x = 10
  • x = 10/8
  • x = 1.25

Find the value of y:

  • 2*1.25 + 6y = 40
  • 2.5 + 6y = 40
  • 6y = 37.5
  • y = 37.5/6
  • y = 6.25
