Question

The most popular items at a bakery are its raspberry scones and its lemon poppy

Answer 1

The system of equations x+y=46 and 15x+9y=396 could be used to find the number of boxes of each item sold.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Cost of one box of raspberry scones = $15.00

Cost of one box of lemon poppy seed muffins = $9.00

Total boxes sold = 46

Total revenue earned = $396

Let,

x be the number of raspberry scones sold.

y be the number of lemon poppy seed muffins sold.

According to given statement;

x+y=46    Eqn 1

15x+9y=396    Eqn 2

The system of equations x+y=46 and 15x+9y=396 could be used to find the number of boxes of each item sold.
