Answer:

Let the dryer cost x.

Then, the washer costs (x+87)

Together, they cost (x) + (x+87) = 787

2x+87 = 787

2x = 700 [subtract 97 from both sides]

x = 350 [divide both sides by 2]

The dryer cost $350.

Check: The washer cost $437. Together, they cost $787 [good to check, right?]

Step-by-step explanation:

hope it's help!!!
