Answer:
The equation should be 8 (x minus 2.75) = 78, and she needs to sell each necklace for $12.50.
Step-by-step explanation:
The contribution margin of each necklace is the difference between its selling price (x) and its cost (2.75). Then the total profit from 8 necklaces would be ...
8(x -2.75)
If Rita wants that profit to be $78, then she needs to solve the equation ...
8(x -2.75) = 78 . . . . correct equation
The solution is ...
x -2.75 = 9.75 . . . . divide by 8
x = 12.50 . . . . . . . . add 2.75
She needs to sell each necklace for $12.50.

<span>Melvina's age is = x, Bettina's age is = 3x
the equation is
x + 20 = 3x - 20
subtract 3x from both sides
-(3x) + x +20 = 3x - 20 - (3x)
-2x + 20 = -20
subtract 20 from both sides
-2x + 20 - (20) = -20 - (20)
-2x = - 40
divide both sides by -2
(-2x)/-2 = (-40)/-2
x = 20
Melvinas age is 20 and Bettinas age is 60</span>
