Question

Please help me to solve
In your industrial oven, you bake two baking sheets with 12 scones each, two baking sheets with 20 cookies each, and one baking sheet with 2 scones and 10 cookies

Write an expression that illustrates the total cost of all baked goods in the scenario above using the variable s to represent the cost of scones, and the variable c to represent the cost of cookies. Simplify your expression by combining like terms

Answer 1

I assume s is the cost of one scone, and c = cost of one cookie.

Otherwise, B, the total baked goods cost = s+c



Let S = cost of scones = s * number of scones
= s * (2*12 + 1*2)

Let C = cost of cookies = c * number of cookies
= c * (2*20 + 1*10)

S = 26s
C = 50c

B = S+C = 26s + 50c
