A furniture maker is making a chair and needs 12 feet of wood. He has chosen to make the chair out of maple, which costs $25 per foot, and pine, which costs $28 per foot. If the furniture maker wants to spend a total of $25.75 per foot, how many feet of each type of wood will he need? |
--------------------------
Let X = Number of FEET at $25
Let Y = Number of FEET at $25.75

X + Y = 12
25X + 25.75Y = 28

X = 12 - Y

25(12 - Y) + 25.75Y = 28
300 - 25Y + 25.75Y = 28

0.75Y = -272

Y = -362.667

X = 374.667
