Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
let the Cookie Dough kit be x
and Baker’s Delight kit be y
cost of Cookie Dough kit= $7
cost of Baker’s Delight= $15
so
x+y=220------------1
7x+15y=2100------2
solve for x and y we have
multiply eqn 1 by 7 and subtract
7x+7y=1540---------3
- 7x+15y=2100-------2
0x-8y=-560
8y=560
divide both sides by 8 we have
y=560/8
y=70
put y=70 in eqn 1 we have
x+70=220
x=220-70
x=150
x=220-70
x=150
A. How many of each type of kit should your band purchase to raise the most money
Cookie Dough kit= 150
Baker’s Delight= 70
B. What is the most money that your band can raise?
Cookie Dough kit profit= selling price-cost price= 12-7= $5
Baker’s Delight profit= selling price-cost price= 25-15= $10
Amount made for Cookie Dough = 150*5=$750
Amount made for Baker’s Delight = 70*10=$700
total= 750+700= $1450
