The equation p= 2.5m + 35 represents the price p of a bracelet, where m is the cost of the materials. The price of a bracelet is $115. What is the price of the materials?
p= 2.5m + 35 (replace p with 115) 115= 2.5m + 35 (subract 35 from each side) 115 - 35 = 2.5m 80 = 2.5m (divide 2.5 from each side) 80/2.5= 2.5m/2.5 32 = m
