Explanation:

"Kristina sold 8 pumpkins for $3.50 each, 6 for $8.00 each, and 15 for $1.00 each. She receives $0.25 for each pumpkin sold plus a $10.00 bonus if her sales total $95.00 or more. How much did she receive?"

Given data

The total number of pumpkin is 8+6+15= 29 pumpkin

total cost of pumpkin=

8*3.5=$28

6*8=$48

15*1=$15

total is $28+$48+$15= $91

the total amount sold is not up to $95, so she will not receive the $10 bonus

But she will receive

0.25*29=$7.25
