A store sells chairs and tables. If the price of 2 chairs and 1 table is 60% of the price of 1 chair and 2 tables, and the price of 1 table and 1 chair is $96, what is the price, in dollars, of 1 table? (Assume that every chair has the same price and every table has the same price.)	Choose the correct choice from the following answers.
A) 81	B) 84	C) 85	D) 88	E) 90

Rationale: let c = chair ; t = table 2 c + 1 t = 0.6 ( 1 c + 2 t ) or c ( 2 - 0.6 ) = 1.2 t - 1 t or 1.4 c = 0.2 t therefore c = 0.2 / 1.4 t = 1 / 7 t ic + 1 t = 96 or 1 / 7 t + 1 t = 96 therefore t = 96 * 7 / 8 = 84 b
Answer: B
