  2 sheets x 12 s 2 sheets x 20 c 1 sheetx (2s+10c) ================= (2x12s) + (2x20c) + (1 x (2s+10c) = 24s + 40c + 2s + 10c = 26s + 50c = total cost of scones + cookies.

  S is the cost of scones c is the cost of cookies x is the cost of baking sheets so the equation becomes 2x + 12 = s 2x + 20 = c similarly, x + 2 = s x + 10 = c
