Kayla is selling lemonade for $1 and cookies $0.50 outside of her house in order to earn enough money to buy a bike that costs $249. The number of cookies, C, that she sells is half the number of lemonade, L, that she sells. Which system of equations matches the situation?

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:

Cost of one lemonade= $1

Cost of one Cookie= $0.5

Cost of bike= $249

Step two

let the number of cookie be C

and the number of lemonade be L

The total cost expressed as a function of the numbers of lemonade and cookie is

249=C+0.5L1

we are told that

C=L/22

Therefore substitute C=L/2 we have

249=L/2+0.5L

249=0.5L+0.5l

249=L

The system of equation is

249=C+0.5L1

C=L/22

answer: 4/6 =5/7.5

step-by-step explanation: it is based on scale and the scale between the two is 1.25. the answer is correct but i dont know if i explained it right
