Question

A motel rents double rooms at $34 per day and single rooms at $26 per day. If 27 rooms were rented one day for a total of $846, how many rooms of each kind were rented

single rooms
double rooms

Answer 1

Answer: 18 double rooms; 9 single rooms

Explanation:
Double+Single rooms= 27 rented rooms
x+y=27

$34 per day X amount of double rooms, $26 per day Y amount of single rooms= $846
34x+26y=846

Express Y in X terms
34x+26(27-x)=846
34x+702-26x=846
8x=144
x=18

Plug the value of x=18 in the original equation
18+y=27
y=27-18
y=9
