write an expression that illustrates the total cost of all baked goods in this scenario using the variable s to represent the cost of scones& the variable c to represent the cost of cookies simplify expression by combining like terms.
You bake two baking sheets with 12 scones, each two baking sheets with 20 cookies each & one baking sheet with 2 scones & 10 cookies.
Thanks!!
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
To find the total cost of all baked goods, we need to add up the cost of each item.
Let's assign the variable "s" to represent the cost of one scone and the variable "c" to represent the cost of one cookie.
From the scenario, we have:
- Two baking sheets with 12 scones each: 2 * 12s
- Two baking sheets with 20 cookies each: 2 * 20c
- One baking sheet with 2 scones and 10 cookies: 2s + 10c
To calculate the total cost, we combine the similar terms:
2 * 12s + 2 * 20c + 2s + 10c
Simplifying the expression further, we get:
24s + 40c + 2s + 10c
Finally, we can combine the like terms to get the simplified expression:
26s + 50c
Therefore, the expression that illustrates the total cost of all baked goods in this scenario is 26s + 50c.
