Scott makes and sells bracelets. He spends $28 on supplies, and he sells each bracelet for $6. Write an expression that represents his profit for
selling b bracelets.

Hi there,

Recall how each bracelet sells for 6 dollars.

Hence, the expression for selling b bracelets is 6b, where b is the number of bracelets sold for the price of 6 dollars.

Profit is the actual amount of money that is earned after you subtract expenses from the total sales.

For instance, if you make $100 from selling items, and you spent $25 on your supplies, then your profit is .

In this case, you need to subtract the $28 spent on supplies from the amount of money that you have made, which is the expression 6b.

Hence, the expression for the profit is:

Hope that helps.
