Agarden table and a bench cost $799 combined. the garden table costs $49 more than the bench. what is the cost of the bench?

799-49=750                                                                                                                   Then you would divide that by 2 to get 375                                                               So the answer is 375 dollar for the bench

We have y=2x and y=x+2
They both equal y, so substitute the first equation for y in the second equation.
2x=x+2
Let’s get x to one side. Let’s subtract x from both sides.
X=2
Since x=2, just plug in 2 for x.
2+2=4
So,
X=2
Y=4
