Not 100% sure but i would assume B because it is one of the only two given that use the proper decimal for 25%, and A (the second one) doesn't.

Answer:

Option C. 0.50( x + 1.25x)

Explanation:

Let Cameron made the cookies = x

Deyonne made 25% more cookies than Cameron = x + 25% of x = x + 0.25x = 1.25x

They sold the cookies for $0.50 per cookie so the selling price will be

(.50)(x) + 0.50(1.25x) = 0.50(x + 1.25x)

So revenue from the sales will be $0.50(x + 1.25x).

Therefore Option C. will be the answer.
