If a washer and dryer cost $750 and the cost of the washer is two times the cost of the dryer, then the cost of the dryer $250
The total cost of a washer and dryer combined = $750
The cost of the dryer = x
The cost of the washer is two times the cost of the dryer.
The cost of the washer = 2x
Then the equation will be
x + 2x = 750
Add the like terms of the equation
3x = 750
Move 3 to the right hand side of the equation
x = 750/3
x = $250
Hence, if a washer and dryer cost $750 and the cost of the washer is two times the cost of the dryer, then the cost of the dryer $250
The complete question is:
A washer and dryer cost $750 combined the cost of the washer is two times the cost of the dryer what is the cost of the dryer?
