Part A
Write an equation that represents the amount of money, A, they’ll make if they sell, m, additional muffins today. Answer:
M
Part B
Use the equation you wrote to determine how much money they’ll make if they sell an additional 22 muffins

Answer 1

A) $ = 2m + 26

B) $70

Explanation:

For a, I know they already sold 13 for $2, meaning they made $26. I know that for each muffin, they will make $2, meaning 2m + 26.

For b, you substitute 22 for m, and solve, getting $70.
