Question 3: Marla bought one necklace and two bracelets for $67.50. Use the following information to determine the amount she paid for each bracelet: The price of the necklace was $27. The bracelets were both the same price.

OpenStudy (igreen):

We can write a formula: n + 2b = 67.50 Where 'n' is necklace, and 'b' is bracelet. So we are given that the price of the necklace is 27, so we can plug that in: 27 + 2b = 67.50 Subtract 27 to both sides, what's 67.50 - 27? @vazxlegend

OpenStudy (anonymous):

first you would have to take away the price of the necklace from the total amount, then divide what is left over by 2

OpenStudy (igreen):

Can you subtract 67.50 - 27? @vazxlegend

40.5?

OpenStudy (igreen):

Yes, now we have: 2b = 40.5 Now we divide 2 to both sides, what's 40.5 / 2?

OpenStudy (igreen):

All you have to do is divide 40.5 / 2 to get your answer. We are not allowed to give answers, but to guide people to the answer.
