Take the equation:

3s + 4t = 35

She can assemble 5 stools and 5 tables: 3*5 + 4*5 = 35

She can assemble 1 stool and 8 tables: 3*1 + 4*8 = 35

She can assemble 9 stools and 2 tables: 3*9 + 4*2 = 35

That was all possible answers.

Good luck,

5 stools, ( 5 x 3 = 15), 5 tables, (5 x 4 = 20).

15 + 20 = 35.

Or, 2 tables, (2 x 4 + 8) , 9 stools, (9 x 3 = 27)

8 + 27 = 35.

and as the following answer said, 8 tables, (8 x 4 = 32). 1 stool, (1 x 3 = 3).

32 + 3 = 35.

idk if i’m right…but 8 tables ( 4 legs times 8=32) and one stool (3 legs) would be correct..i guess…

when and if u get the answer..tell me cuz i really do love math and it’s nice to take a guess once in awhile, ya know? just don’t take my answer cuz i’m probably as wrong as two left shoes

this question actually does not have a unique solution. It does not even state that she must use all the legs she made. Both first two answer could be correct, along with others
