The gourmet bakery sells cooks for $2 each and cupcakes for $4 each. a total of 110 desserts are sold, and the total profit made from
selling cookies and cupcakes is $314. how many cookies and how many cupcakes were sold?

x = 63

y = 47

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the number of cookies sold is x and that of cupcakes i y, we have:

x + y = 110

2x + 4y = 314

Please see the image for the detailed steps.

let y equal to

the total fare and x is the mile of taxi ride. so the equation is

y = 0.55x + 1.75

since susie has

$10 to spend for a taxi cab, so he can have

10 = 0.55x +

1.75

x = 15 miles of

taxi ride

so the system of

inequality is

10 < 0.55x +

1.75

x > 2
