A washer and a dryer cost $796 combined. The washer cost $54 less than the dryer. What is the cost of the dryer?

Explanation:

w = cost of washer

d = cost of dryer

costs are in dollars

w+d = 796 since the two costs combine to get a total cost of $796

w = d-54 because the washer is $54 cheaper

Let's start with the first equation and plug in the second equation

w+d = 796

(w) + d = 796

(d-54)+d = 796 ... replace w with d-54

d-54+d = 796

2d-54 = 796

2d = 796+54 ... adding 54 to both sides

2d = 850

d = 850/2 ... dividing both sides by 2

d = 425

The dryer costs $425

We can stop here.

If you want to find the cost of the washer, then,

w = d-54

w = 425-54 plug in d = 425

w = 371

The washer costs $371

Note that

w+d = 371+425 = 796

which matches with the total cost we were given. This confirms our answer.

what do you need me to answer?

step-by-step explanation:

a. turk and mcalister

b. howard, mission, and market

c. yes. since streets end some do not cross yet are not parallel to others. example: mcalister and 5th

step-by-step explanation:

parallel lines are lines which do not intersect ever and look a lot like railroad tracks. turk, mcalister and golden gate are examples of these.

intersect are streets which cross each other and a car on one can reach the other. howard, mission, and market intersect with 6th.

skew lines are lines which neither intersect nor are parallel. these lines exist here because some streets end and never intersect another like mcalister and 5th.
