Lauren goes to the exhibition. She purchased some woodech antiques for \( \$ 70 \). She purchases a table for \( \$ 44 \) and 2 chairs. Each of the chairs costs he same price. Write an equation representing the cost of the antiques and determine the price of one chair.

**Step 1: Define the variable** Let \( x \) be the cost of one chair. **Step 2: Write the equation** The total cost for the antiques is given by the sum of the cost of a table and the cost of 2 chairs. Thus, the equation is: \[ 44 + 2x = 70 \] **Step 3: Solve the equation** Subtract \( 44 \) from both sides: \[ 2x = 70 - 44 = 26 \] Divide both sides by 2: \[ x = \frac{26}{2} = 13 \] **Answer** The price of one chair is \(\$13\).
