A) the total cost for 8 bracelets, including the shipping was $54. the shipping charge was $6. define your variable and write an equation that models the cost of each bracelet. b) use the equation you have written in part a to determine the cost for each bracelet. show the algebraic steps that it takes to find the answer, and provide the conclusion.

A) The total cost for 8 bracelets, including the shipping was $ 54. The shipping charge was $ 6. Define your variable and write an equation that models the cost of each bracelet.
 The first thing we must do for this case is define variables:
 y = total cost
 x = Cost of bracelets
 Writing the equation we have:
 y = ((54-6) / (8)) x + 6
 Rewriting:
 y = (48/8) x + 6
 y = 6x + 6
 The total cost is $ 54, therefore:
 54 = 6x + 6
 
 An equation that models the cost of each bracelet is:
 54 = 6x + 6
 B) Use the equation you have written in part A to determine the cost for each bracelet. Please show the algebraic steps that it takes to find the answer, and please provide the conclusion.

 We have the following equation:
 y = 6x + 6
 The cost of each bracelet is given by the slope of the line:
 $ 6
 For x = 8 bracelets we have:
 y = 6 (8) + 6
 y = 48 + 6
 y = $ 54
 
 the cost for each bracelet is:
 $ 6

Add them all together then u will get your answer
