Please help- A bakery sells cakes for $18 each and pies for $15 each. Last weekend the bakery sold 118 total items and earned $1,932. How many pies were sold last weekend?

64 pies sold

Step-by-step explanation:

x = number of cakes sold

y = number of pies sold

Last weekend the bakery sold 118 total items

x + y = 118

Last weekend the bakery earned $1,932.

18x + 15y = 1,932.

Get rid of one of the terms, in this case x.

x + y = 118 becomes

18x + 18y = 2124

Subtract the equations from each other

(18x - 18x) + (18y - 15y) = 2124 - 1932

3y = 192

y = 64

Subsititue y into the orginal qeuation to solve for x and check it's right.

x + 64 = 118

x = 118 - 64 = 54

18(54) + 15(64) = 1932

hi there!

first we need to find out how much they are adding to each number to make the next number.

ex: 4 + 4 = 8, 8 + 8 = 16, and so on.

so continuing with 32,

32 + 32 = 64

64 + 64 = 128

128 + 128 = 256

256 + 256 = 512

4, 8, 16, 32, 64, 128, 256, 512

the 8th term of the sequence will be 512

hope this ! ~
