<u>Find cost of 1 necklace:</u>

20 necklaces = $500

1 necklace = $500 ÷ 20 = $25



<u>Find Sales of 3/4 of the necklaces:</u>

3/4 of 20 = 3/4 x 20 = 15 necklaces

15 necklaces sold at $40 each = 15 x 40 = $600



<u>Find Sales of the remaining necklaces:</u>

20 - 15 = 5

5 necklaces sold at $25 = 5 x 25 = $125



<u>Find profit:</u>

Total Sales = $600 + $ 125 = $ 725

Total profit made = $725 - $500 = $225



Answer: She made $225

$725


3/4 of 20 = 15 necklaces

15 x 40 = 600


The rest:

5 x 25 = 125


125 + 600

= 725

Dimas [21]

Answer:

f(n) = 1750 + 70n

Step-by-step explanation:

Since, each of them are depositing 35$ each month, they are adding 35x2 = 70$ each month.

So, in n months, they will be adding 70n $ to their account.

Initially, they had 1,750$ in their account. After n months, they should have 1750+70n $ in their account.

So, the function that represents this is, f(n) = 1750 +70n

gtnhenbr [62]

Answer:

28 minutes spent in washing the dishes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the table

Chore             time in minutes

Sweeping           42

Dishes                  ?

Amanda spent a total of 70 minutes competing her chores this week

Total of 70 minutes spent

42 minutes spent in sweeping . to find the number of minutes Amanda spent in washing the dishes , subtract 42 minutes from the total time spent

let x be the number of minutes spent washing the dishes

42+x=70

To solve for x , subtract 42 from both sides

42+x=70\\x= 70-42\\x=28

28 minutes spent in washing the dishes.
