Renee has a jewelry business where her clients create their own bracelets from antique buttons. she charges $15 for the entire activity, which includes the string for the bracelet. it is an additional $2.00 for each antique button. Write an equation that represents the cost, given that x number of buttons are chosen

Answer 1

Per bracelet you have :
* the basic bracelet -> $15
*
`x` additional buttons ->
`x*2.00`

The total cost is thus
`\boxed{\$15+x*\$2}`
