A computer and printer cost a total of $930 . The cost of the computer is two times the cost of the printer. Find the cost of each item.

Respuesta :

Answer:

Computer: $620

Printer: $310

Step-by-step explanation:

c + p = 930

c = 2p

c = cost of the computer

p = cost of the printer

replacing the second eq. in the first eq.

2p + p = 930

3p = 930

p = 930/3

p = 310

from the second eq.

c = 2p

c = 2*310

c = 620

Check

from the first eq.

620 + 310 = 930
