X= 6 y=9 and the last one is -40 i believe. the middle ones i'm not sure of
--------------------------------------------------------------
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
