Question

A baker sells bread for $4 a loaf and rolls for $1 each. The baker needs to sell $24 worth of

baked goods by the end of the day.
Enter a linear equation that describes the problem.
= $24, where b is the number of
An equation for the value of the baked goods is
loaves of bread sold, and r is the number of rolls sold.

Answer 1

the Baker needs to sell 5 bread loafs which is 5×4=20$ B

and the Baker needs to sell 4 rolled which is 4×1=4$ R

20+4 =24$

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost of 1 loaf of bread = $4

Cost of 1 roll = $1

The baker needs to sell both items and it should be worth $24.

To find the linear equation, Suppose, the baker sells “b” loaves of bread and “r” rolls.

Then the total cost of the sales has to be $24.

So, the linear equation will be:

4b + 1r = 24
