Answer:

the fraction of the sale price of this necklace would be (704/1599). To find the percent you would divide 7.04 by 15.99 to find the decimal would be 44%. 223.86/15.99=14 necklaces. 14(7.04)=$98.56 of profit.

Add the costs of material and labor together:

Subtract this value from how much Lucy sells a necklace for:

Lucy's profit from a necklace is $7.04.

Set up a fraction where the profit is the numerator, and the sale price is the denominator to get your ratio:

The ratio will be 704/1599.

b)

Divide the profit by the sale price:

Multiply the decimal by 100 to get your percentage:

Check the tenths value to round to the nearest percent:

0 < 5

44.03 ≈ 44

44% of the sale price is profit.

c)

Divide the total amount Lucy earned at the fair by the sale price of an individual necklace:

Lucy made 14 necklaces.

To find the total profit Lucy made from the fair, multiply the total amount of necklaces she made by the profit for each necklace:

Lucy's total profits were $98.56.

you can change values to find the answer just substitute

Answer:

x = 11

Step-by-step explanation:

3(2x-4) = 5x-1

6x + (-12) = 5x + (-1)

add -12 to both sides, subtract 5x from both sides. Simplify.
