students at a bake sale sell bags of cookies for $2.25 each and bags of miniture muffins for $1.50 each. They received a $25 donation. the amount of money made from selling c bags of cookies and m bags of muffins can be modeled by the expression 2.25c + 1.5m +25. Interpret the expression 2.25c + 1.5m in this context.

Answer 1

Answer:

The students at a bake sale sell bags of cookies for $2.25 each and bags of miniature muffins for $1.50 each.

Now, c number of cookies bags can be represented by $2.25c$.

And m number of miniature muffin bags can be represented by $1.50m$.

They received a $25 donation.

Hence, the equation representing total money earned is :

$2.25c+1.50m+25$

Here 2.25c means c bags at $2.25 per bag and 1.50m means m bags for $1.50 each.

Answer 2

2.25c+1.5m context is that 2.25c represents the price of selling bags of cookies, hint the c. 1.5m represents the price of selling muffins, hint the m. In whole the equation represent the amount of money the bake sale would make minus the $25 donation.
