Together, a bat, a ball, and a glove cost $99.00. The bat costs $9.95 more than the ball, and the glove costs $65.45 more than the bat. How much does each cost?
\n" ); document.write( "THANK YOU!\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Let x=cost of the ball
\n" ); document.write( "Then $9.95+x=cost of the bat
\n" ); document.write( "And $9.95+x+$65.45=cost of the glove\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "ball+bat+glove=$99.00
\n" ); document.write( "x+$9.95+x+$9.95+x+$65.45=$99.00 collect like terms
\n" ); document.write( "3x+$85.35=$99.00 subtract $85.35 from both sides:
\n" ); document.write( "3x+$85.35-$85.35=$99.00-$85.35\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "3x=$13.65
\n" ); document.write( "x=$4.55 cost of ball
\n" ); document.write( "$9.95+x=$9.95+4.55=$14.50 cost of bat\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "$9.95+x+$65.45=$14.50+$65.45=$79.95 cost of glove\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "ck
\n" ); document.write( "$4.55+$14.50+$79.95=$99.00
\n" ); document.write( "$99.00=$99.00\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Bat costs $9.95 more than ball=$9.95+$4.55=$14.50
\n" ); document.write( "Glove costs $65.45 more than bat=$65.45+$14.50=$79.95\r
