Let x_1,\ x_2,\ldots,\ x_8 be the scores of the first 8 quizzes. We know that the average of these scores is 85, so we have

\dfrac{x_1+x_2+\ldots+x_8}{8} = 85 \iff x_1+x_2+\ldots+x_8 = 85 \cdot 8 = 680

The average of the first 9 scores is 81, and it is given by

\dfrac{x_1+x_2+\ldots+x_8+x_9}{9} = 81

But we know that the sum of the first 8 is 680:

\dfrac{680+x_9}{9} = 81

And we can solve for the nineth score: multiply both sides by 9:

680+x_9 = 729

Subtract 680 from both sides:

x_9 = 729 - 680 = 49

A washer and dryer cost $841 combined. The washer cost $59 less than the dryer. How much does the dryer cost?
konstantin123 [22]

Answer:

dryer cost = $450

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

washer + dryer = $841  ---- eq1

As washer costs $59 less than dryer So,

Dryer - $59 = washer

putting in eq1

Dryer + dryer - $59  = $841

2 dryers = $841 +$59

Dryer  = $900/2

Dryer = $450

So the cost of washer will be:

washer = dryer - $59

Washer = $450 - $59

washer = $391

i hope it will help you!
