Answer:

x= −1/3 y+5/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve for x.

y=−3x+5

Step 1: Flip the equation.

−3x+5=y

Step 2: Add -5 to both sides.

−3x+5+−5=y+−5

−3x=y−5

Step 3: Divide both sides by -3.

−3x

−3

y−5

−3

−1

A washer and a dryer cost $847 combined. The washer costs $53 less than the dryer. What is the cost of the dryer?

Natalija [7]

--------------------------------------------------------------
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
--------------------------------------------------------------
