Answer:

The bench cost $325

Step-by-step explanation:

Garden Table + Bench = $742

g + b = $742

Garden Table - Bench = $92

g - b = $92

g = $92 + b

Substitute g into total cost equation

$92 + b + b = $742

$92 + 2b = $742

2b = $650

b = $325

The bench cost $325

Hope this helps :)

The bench was $325.00.

This could be represented as the equation x+x+92=742. You would have two x terms because you have one representing the cost for the table (x+92) and the bench (x).

Next you want to add all like terms which will give you 2x+92=742. Afterwards subtract 92 from both sides of the equation and you’ll get 2x=650. Divide on both sides by two to isolate x. X=325.
