Question

Help me please-Write a system of equations to describe the situation below, solve using any method, and fill in the blanks.

Answer 1

• The total expenses is $156 is the total necklaces sold is 4.

Explanation:

We know that:

• x = Necklaces created and sold
• 140 + 4(x) = Total cost
• 39x = Profit = Total cost
• Profit = Total cost

Work:

• 140 + 4x = 39x
• => 140 = 39x - 4x
• => 140 = 35x
• => x = 140/35
• => x = 4

Now, let's substitute the value of x into any equation to find the total expenses and sales.

• 140 + 4x
• => 140 + 4(4)
• => 156

Hence, the total expenses is $156 is the total necklaces sold is 4.

Hoped this helped.
