Joe sold a total of 10 baked goods. Each cookie costs $1.25 and each brownie costs $2.50. Joe made $20 at the bake sale. How man
AURORKA [14]

Answer:

4 cookies

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of cookies he sold be c and that of brownies be b.

Assuming that brownies and cookies are the only type of baked goods sold,

b +c= 10 -----(1)

Amount of money received= $20

b(cost of brownie) +c(cost of cookie)= $20

2.50b +1.25c= 20 -----(2)

From (1): b= 10 -c -----(3)

Substitute (3) into (2):

2.50(10 -c) +1.25c= 20

Expand:

2.50(10) +2.50(-c) +1.25c= 20

25 -2.50c +1.25c= 20

-1.25c +25= 20

Being constants to 1 side:

-1.25c= 20 -25

-1.25c= -5

c= -5 ÷(-1.25)

c= 4

Thus, Joe sold 4 cookies.

In the picture thank you

Answer:

The correct answer is b) 1100 adults and 1400 students.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find this, set up a system of equations in which x is the number of students who attend and y is the number of adults who attend.

First start by creating an equation for money made.

5x + 10y = 18,000

Now write an equation for the amount that attend.

x + y = 2,500

Now multiply the bottom equation by -5 and add the equations together.

-5x - 5y = -12,500

5x + 10y = 18,000

5y = 5,500

y = 1,100

Since this is the number of adults, we can plug into an original equation to find the number of students.

x + y = 2,500

x + 1,100 = 2,500

x = 1,400
