Question

Washer and a dryer cost $746 combined washer cost $96 more than the dryer what is the cost of the dryer

Answer 1

Answer:

$325

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

let the cost of dryer be x

let the cost of wahser be y

so

x+y= 746--------------1

y= x+96----------------2

put y=  x+96 in equation 1

x+ x+96= 746

2x+96= 746

2x= 746-96

2x=650

divide both sides by 2

x= 650/2

x=325

Hence the cost of the dryer is $325
