<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

Someone plz. help me with 7 and 8

7.) the equation of the circle is
(x - 3)^2 + (y - 4)^2 = 25

If you substitute the point in you get
(6-3)^2 + (8-4)^2 = 25
3^2 + 4^2 = 25
9 + 16 = 25
25 = 25

Both sides of the equation are the same so it proves it lies on the circle

8.) you add the x coordinates together and divide by 2
7 + 4 = 11
11/2 = 5.5
You use +7 because you need to find the midpoint.
You then add 5.5 to - 7 or - 5.5 from 4
-7 + 5.5 = - 1.5

You do the same for y coordinates
6+5 = 11
11/2 = 5.5
6-5.5 = 0.5

So the coordinates of Rachel's house are
(-1.5, 0.5)
