Question

A garden table and bench cost $655 combined. The garden table cost $45 less than the bench. What is the cost of the bench?

Answer 1

Answer:

$444

Step-by-step explanation:

let the cost of the bench = x

 

the cost of the garden table is x + 94

 so,

x + (x + 94) = 794

 

2x + 94 = 794

 

2x = 700

 

x = 350

 

The bench costs $350 and the garden table costs 350 + 94 = $444
