A.) If Lucy sells 1 necklace, her sales would equal to $15.99. Then her profit would be:
Profit = $15.99 - $3.38(1) - $5.57(1)
Profit = $7.04
The fraction of the sale price of the necklace in profit is denoted as x.
15.99x = 7.04
x = 704/1559
b.) This is the same as part (a) but in decimal form. Just simply divide 704 by 1559. The answer is 0.44
c.) If Lucy's sales is $223.86 and each necklace costs $15.99, then the number of necklaces sold is $223.86 ÷ $15.99/necklace = 14 necklaces
Her profit for the 14 necklaces sold would be:
$223.86 - $3.38(14) - $5.57(14) = $98.56

Answer:
The answer is 27
Step-by-step explanation:
The reason being, you can solve this 2 ways.
1) Combine like terms, 7a-4a = 3a.
Now just substitute (a=9) into 3a.
3 * (9) = 27.
2) Or just substitute a = 9 into the original expression.
7 * (9) - 4 * (9)
= 63 - 36 = 27
