Answer:
The Answer is $95
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x and y be the per hour price of both activities. This gives us two equations which are:
[tex](1)2x+5y=205\\(2)3x+3y=240[/tex]
Now we divide equation (2) by 3 so we get the value of y:
[tex]x+y=80\\y=80-x[/tex]
Then we substitute y into equation (1):
[tex]2x+5(80-x)=205\\-3x=205-400\\-3x=(-195)\\3x=195\\x=65[/tex]
Now we insert the in the equation we got for y:
[tex]y=80-x\\y=80-65\\y=5[/tex]
The code for 1 hour of parasailing and 2 hours of horseback riding:
[tex]=x+2y\\=65+2(15)\\=95[/tex]
