So,
"six feet less than"
- 6
"the width"
w
w - 6
"six feet less than the width (w)"
w - 6
The answer to this question is x=8; y= -7
Answer:
x = -15 or 15
Step-by-step explanation:
We can simplify |x| - 3 = 15 to |x| = 15 because we can add 3 on both sides due to -3 being outside of the absolute value bars. Next, we can say that x is either 15 or -15 because of the absolute value (|15| is equal to 15 and |-15| is also equal to 15).
Let “x” represent the cost of the dryer in dollars
The washer costs 3x dollars
3x + x = 1000
4x = 1000
x = 250
The dryer is $250
