Help me please for this question im heavily confused.

a)

Let x = number of candy bars sold

Let y = amount of money earned

b)

y = 0.75x

c)

He should work at the car wash.

Step-by-step explanation:

a)

Let x = number of candy bars sold

Let y = amount of money earned

b)

$42.75/57 = $0.75

Each candy bar costs $0.75

We can confirm that by dividing $38.25/51 = $0.75

1 candy bar sells for $0.75

2 candy bars sell for $0.75 * 2

x candy bars sell for 0.75 * x, or simply 0.75x

The equation is y = 0.75x

c)

y = 0.75x

y = 0.75 * 36

y = 27
