A baking club has a bake sale, selling brownies at $1.50 per brownie. Write an equation using two variables to show the relationship between the number of brownies sold, b
, and the total sales from brownies, s
. What is the total sales from brownies if the club sells 25?(1 point)
Responses
s=1.5b
; $25.00
s equals 1.5 b ; $25.00
s=1.5b
; $37.50
s equals 1.5 b ; $37.50
b=1.5s
; $25.00
b equals 1.5 s ; $25.00
b=1.5s
; $37.50

To model the relationship between the number of brownies sold (b) and the total sales from brownies (s), you can use the equation:
\[ s = 1.5b \]
Now, if the club sells 25 brownies, you can substitute \( b = 25 \) into the equation:
\[ s = 1.5 \times 25 \] \[ s = 37.50 \]
Therefore, the total sales from brownies if the club sells 25 is $37.50.
The correct response is:
s = 1.5b; $37.50
