Answer:
Dryer cost $475; Washer cost $382
Step-by-step explanation:
For this problem, we will simply set up a system of equations to find the value of each the washer (variable x) and the dryer (variable y).
We are given the washer and dryer cost $857 together.
x + y = 857
We are also given that the washer cost $93 less than the dryer.
x = y - 93
So to find the cost of the dryer, we simply need to find the value of y.
x + y = 857
x = y - 93
( y - 93 ) + y = 857
2y - 93 = 857
2y = 950
y = 475
So now we have the value of the dry to be $475. We can check this by simply plugging in the value and see if it makes sense.
x + y = 857
x + 475 = 857
x = 382
And check this value:
x = y - 93
382 ?= 475 - 93
382 == 382
Therefore, we have found the values of both the washer and the dryer.

I don't think it's proportional, because in order for a question to be a proportional question has/could be to be like this:
Gasoline costs $2.79 per 2 gallon. How much will it cost for 8 gallon. Then, we cross multiply and all to find the answer.

I am pretty sure the answer is A.
Answer:
What we know is that 30% of the group have brown hair and are girls. It means that in the other 70% we have the boys with brown hair, the other boys and the other girls.
In the case all the girls have brown hair, the 70% remaining would be boys. So 70% of then would have brown hair. (0.7*0.7=0.49 -> 49% of the children would be brown hair) so 49% (boys) and 30% (girls) are more than 50%..
Now, let's suppouse that 90% of the group are girls. It means 10% are boys and 70% of that 10% (=7%) are the boys in the group that have brown hair. Now 7% + 30% of the children have brown hair, wich isn't more than the half.
We have explained with two extreme cases that the information is not enough for making a precise answer
