At a furniture store, you can purchase 2 floor lamps and 3 table lamps for $360, or 2 floor lamps and 1 table lamp for $240. What is the cost of one floor lamp? What is the cost of one table lamp?

19$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the cost of a floor lamp.

Let y be the cost of a table lamp.

2x+3y=360

2x+y=240

2x=360-3y

2x=240-y

360-3y=240-y

360=240+2y

120=2y

y=60

One table lamp is 60 dollars.
