Respuesta :

Answer:

43 earbuds

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of earbuds sold over the week

This implies that

1 earbud:$17

x earbud:$731

Writing an equation, we get

[tex] \frac{1}{17} = \frac{x}{731} [/tex]

cross multiplying, we obtain

17x=731

Dividing through by 17,we get

x=43
