Let
x ----> cost to rent each chair
y ----> cost to rent each table
so
we have that
4x+8x=61 -----> equation A
2x+3y=24 ----> equation B
Solve the system
Multiply equation B by -2 on both sides
-2[2x+3y=24 ] -----> -4x-6y=-48 -----> equation C
Adds equation A and equation C
4x+8x=61
-4x-6y=-48
-----------------
8x-6y=61-48
2y=13
y=6.5
Find out the value of x
substitute the value of y in any equation
so
2x+3y=24
2x+3(6.5)=24
2x=4.5
x=2.25
therefore
The cost to rent each chair is $2.25 and the cost to rent each table is $6.5
