Cost of printer:

Respuesta :

Answer:

Cost of Computer: $734

Cost of Printer: $367

Step-by-step explanation:

These two equations can represent the costs; x = price of computer; y = price of printer.

x + y = 1101

2y = x

If you graph these, you get an intersection point of (734, 367). This means that the only place that both equations are fulfilled is on (734, 367).

Then you can check your work:

734+367=1101

367*2=734
