Question

Shelby made $200 from selling candy bars. Large, x, candy bars sell for $4 each and smaller, y, candy bars sell for $2 each. Write an equation to represent how many of each type of candy bar she sold to earn the $200.

Answer 1

Answer:

The Equation is

4x+2y= 200

Then total number of candy bars is

X+Y

Step-by-step explanation:

Shelby made $200 from selling x at $4 each and y at $2 each.

Let's have in mind that x is the number of large candy bars

And y is the number of small candy bars

The equation is simple

The amount it was sold is going to be the coefficient of the numbers we don't Know...

So

Equation is

4x+2y= 200

Then total number of candy bars is

X+Y
