To represent the total amount raised from the sale of cookies and cakes, you can use the following equation:

\[ 2c + 10k = 800 \]

In this equation:

  • \( c \) represents the number of cookies sold, with each cookie selling for $2.
  • \( k \) represents the number of cakes sold, with each cake selling for $10.
  • The total amount raised from both cookies and cakes equals $800.
