A garden table and a bench cost 975 combined. The garden table costs 75 more than the bench. What is the cost of the bench

$525

x+ y = 975

x - 75 = y

x + x - 75 = 975

2x = 1050

x = $525

Step-by-step explanation:

Below!

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the cost of the bench

The cost of the garden table can be represented by this equation:

      x + 75

x + (x + 75) = 975

2x + 75 = 975

2x = 900

Divide both sides by 2

x = 450

The bench costs $450

The garden table costs 450 + 75 = $525

Hope this helps! Best of luck <3

I would really appreciate brainliest if possible :)
