Jimmy saw a tent which was $15 more than twice the cost of an air mattress. The total of both was $210. What was the cost of the tent and the air mattress?

Respuesta :

Answer:

  Tent:  $145

  Mattress:  $65

Step-by-step explanation:

      Tent:   2x + 15

Mattress:   x

2x + 15 + x = 210

3x + 15 = 210

3x = 195

x = 65

      Tent:   2x + 15 = 2(65) + 15 = 145

Mattress:   x = 65
