B inverse you swap x and y
--------------------------------------------------------------
Define x :
--------------------------------------------------------------
Let the dryer be x.
Dryer = x
Washer = x -53
--------------------------------------------------------------
Construct Equation :
--------------------------------------------------------------
The washer and the dryer cost $847
⇒ x + x - 53 = 847
--------------------------------------------------------------
Solve x :
--------------------------------------------------------------
x + x - 53 = 847
2x - 53 = 847
2x = 847 + 53
2x = 900
x = 450
--------------------------------------------------------------
Find cost of dryer and washer :
--------------------------------------------------------------
Dryer = x = $450
Washer = x = 450 - 53 = 397
--------------------------------------------------------------
Answer: Dryer = $450
--------------------------------------------------------------
Answer:
$299
Step-by-step explanation:
Make a proportion
He makes $184 for 8 hours of work, and $x for 13 hours of work
184/8=x/13
To solve, we need to get x by itself. To do this, multiply both sides by 13. We multiply because x is being divide by 13, and we want to do the opposite.
13(184/8)=(x/13)13
The 13s on the right will cancel, leaving us with
13(23)=x
299=x
So, he will earn $299 for 13 hours of work.
