hardThe combined original price for a towel and chair is $40. After a 35% discount to the towel and a 15% discount to the chair are applied, the combined sale price for the two items is $31. Which system of equations gives the original price t, in dollars, of the towel and the original price c, in dollars, of the chair?
A
t+c=40; 0.85t+0.65c=31
B
t+c=40; 0.15t+0.35c=31
C
t+c=40; 0.65t+0.85c=31
D
t+c=40; 0.35t+0.15c=31
