\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " Mrs. Atkins pays 1800 for a new refrigerator, washer, and dryer. The refrigerator costs 250 more than the washer. The dryer costs half as much as the washer. How much does does the washer cost?
\n" ); document.write( "
Let price of washer be W
\n" ); document.write( "Then price of refrigerator = W + 250 (Refrigerator costs $250 more than the washer)
\n" ); document.write( "Also, cost of the dryer is: \"%281%2F2%29+%2A+W\", or \".5W\" (Dryer costs \"1%2F2\" , or .5 of the price of the washer)
\n" ); document.write( "Since all cost a total of $1,800, then we get:
\n" ); document.write( "\"W+%2B+W+%2B+250+%2B+.5W+=+1800\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"W+%2B+W+%2B+.5W+%2B+250+=+1800\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"2.5W+=+1800+-+250\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"2.5W+=+1550\"
\n" ); document.write( "W, or cost of washer = \"1550%2F2.5\", or \"highlight_green%28%22%24%22620%29\" \n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
