a bead shop sells wooden beads for 3 dollars each and glass beads for 7 dollars each
Write a function rule to represent the total selling price of wooden (w) and glass (g) beads.
selling price = x
x = 3w + 7g
To write a function rule to represent the total selling price of wooden (w) and glass (g) beads, we first need to determine the number of wooden beads and glass beads being sold. Let's assume we have 'x' wooden beads and 'y' glass beads.
The price per wooden bead is $3, so the total price of wooden beads can be calculated as 3 * x = 3x dollars.
Similarly, the price per glass bead is $7, so the total price of glass beads can be calculated as 7 * y = 7y dollars.
To find the total selling price of both types of beads, we just need to add the totals of wooden and glass beads. Thus, the function rule to represent the total selling price is:
Total selling price (P) = 3x + 7y
