Celeste wants to have her haircut and perm and also go to lunch she knows she will need $95 the perm costs twice as much as her haircut and she needs five dollars for lunch how much Does the perm cost?

The cost of the haircut + the perm is $95, and the Perm is double the price of the Haircut. $5 was spent on lunch so ...

95 - 5 = 90 : Get rid of the money spent on lunch.

90 = x + 2x : x is Haircut, 2x is Perm.

90 = 3x : Divide both sides by 3.

x = 30

The haircut is $30, so the Perm is $60 - because Perm is double the price.

Perm costs 60

95-5=90

x+2x=90

2x=30

x=60

30*2=60

60+30=90
