Tracy is a salon owner. yesterday, she did 1 haircut and colored the hair of 2 clients, charging a total of $191. today, she did 5 haircuts and colored the hair of 2 clients, charging a total of $355. how much does tracy charge for her services?

X= $ cost of haircut
y= $ cost of hair coloring

Yesterday's Equation
1x + 2y= $191

Today's Equation
5x + 2y= $355

Solve for one variable in either equation and substitute in other equation

x + 2y= $191
subtract 2y from both sides
x= 191 - 2y

Substitute x value in today's equation
5x + 2y= $355
5(191 - 2y) + 2y= 355
multiply 5 by all in parentheses
(5*191) + (5*-2y) + 2y= 355
955 - 10y + 2y= 355
955 - 8y= 355
subtract 955 from both sides
-8y= -600
divide both sides by -8
y= $75 cost of hair coloring

Substitute y value to find x value
1x + 2y= $191
x + 2(75)= 191
x + 150= 191
subtract 150 from both sides
x= $41 cost of haircut

ANSWER: She charges $41 for a haircut and $75 for hair coloring.

Hope this helps! :)

1) add 6 to 24, write the rest of the equation 10-2x= 30 subtract 10 from 30 2x=20 divide 20 by 2 and x=102) add 3 to -9 write the rest of the equation 4x+3=-6 subtract 3 from -6 4x=-9 x= -2.25  i don't know the rest sorry
