Question

the selling price of a television set is $125 more than twice the cost. find the cost if the selling price is $325.

Answer 1

The cost is $100. Take $325, and subtract $125. It gives you $200. And you have to divide that in half cuz the price is twice the cost. So the cost is $100

(* I love getting brainliest! ;) *)

Answer 2

We can make an equation, which would be $325= 2x+$125
subtract 125 from both sides, and you get 200=2x
To find x, divide both sides by 2 and you get $100
