Question

Samantha sells two types of wristbands, rope or beaded. She charges more for beaded wristbands than for rope

Answer 1

Answer:

y = number of wristbands of Type 2 at $8 each

Step-by-step explanation:

The  number of wristband of Type 1=x

The  number of wristband of Type 2=y

The total amount of money earned from selling these wristbands is given as:

Amount of Money collected=5x + 8y

Now Total cost for an item= Cost Per Item X Number of Item sold

Therefore:

8y = 8 X y =Cost Per Wristband of Type 2 X number of wristbands of Type 2

The variable y represents the number of wristbands of Type 2 which is sold for $8 each.
