Sagot :

Answer:

3.50

Step-by-step explanation:

Necklace has beads and a pendant

b +p

There are 6 necklaces at a cost pf 43.80

6(b+p) =43.80

The beads for one necklace cost 3.80 so replace b with 3.80

6(3.80+p) =43.80

Divide each side by 6

6(3.80+p)/6 =43.80/6

3.80 +p = 7.30

Subtract 3.80 from each side

3.80+p-3.80 = 7.30 -3.80

p =3.50
