Answer 2

Answer: Equation which shows profit is
`6.50* 10-18`

Explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of pies sold at a bake sale = 10

Sold price = $6.50

Cost price of pies = $18.00

Since we know that

Profit = Selling price - Cost price

So, it becomes

`Profit=6.50* 10-18\\\\Profit=65-18\\\\Profit=\$47`

Hence, equation which shows profit is
`6.50* 10-18`
