Let the cost of the case be x. Then the binoculars cost x+50. So the total cost is x+x+50=60. Subtract 50 from both sides: x+x=10, therefore x=5. The case costs £5.

The case costs £5.
If binoculars cost £50 more than the case, then the binoculars cost £55 and the case costs £5, making the total £60.

Let x = price of case, x + 50 = price of binaculars,
pribe of case + price of binacular = 60
x + x +50 = 60
2x = 60 - 50
x = 5

£60. You can't buy them separately, mfg policy. The difference is profit, I guess... What size binoculars are we talking about?

let the cost of binocular be £x
let the cost of case be £y
x+y=60..............equation 1
x-y=50...............equation 2
adding equation 1& 2
2x=110
therefore x=55
and y=5
therefore.......binoculars cost £55 and case cost £5
