Question

A packet of nachos and cheese dip cost togather 110. the cost of th nachos chip is 100 more than the cost of the dip. what is the cost of the nachos packet ?

Answer 1

Answer:

105

Step-by-step explanation:

let cost of nachos be x

let cost of cheese dip be y

x + y = 110        ...........equation 1

but cost of the nachos chip is 100 more than the cost of the dip

=> x = y + 100

applying  x = y + 100 in equation 1

( y + 100 ) + y = 110

=> 2y + 100 = 110

=> 2y = 110 - 100 = 10

=> y = 10/2

= 5

x = y + 100

= 100 + 5 = 105

so cost of nachos chips is 105

Answer 2

Answer: 105

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the price of cheese dip be x.

Then, according to the question,

Price of nacho chips = x + 100

Again, according to the question,

(Price of nacho chips) + (Price of cheese dip) = 110

=> x + 100 + x = 110

=> 2x + 100 = 110

=>2x = 110-100

=>2x = 10

=> x = 10/2

=> x = 5

So, price of cheese dip = 5

Therefore, price of nacho chips = 5 + 100

                                                     = 105
