Melinda creates jewelry. After purchasing supplies, she had $150 left in her account. She sells five bracelets and a necklace making her new account total $235. If the necklace sold for $22. 50, which equation can be used to determine the sales price of the bracelets?.

Respuesta :

The equation that can be used to determine the sales price of the bracelets is $22.5

Amount in her account = $150

Amount in her account after sales = $235

Change in account balance = $235 - $150

= $85

cost of necklace = $22.5

let

bracelet = x

necklace = y

The equation:

Total sales = 5x + y

85 = 5x + 22.5

85 - 22.5 = 5x

62.5 = 5x

x = 62.5/5

x = $12.5

Therefore, the cost of each bracelet is $12.5 and the cost of necklace is $22.5
