Jacqui is selling scented candles as a fundraiser for a school field trip. Each cinnamon candle sells for $3.50 and each chocolate candle sells for $2.50. She raised a total of $94.50 for the trip. The number of chocolate candles that Jacqui sold is three less than twice the number of cinnamon candles. Let c represent the number of chocolate candles and let m represent the number of cinnamon candles. How many chocolate candles did Jacqui sell?

Number of cinammon = 12

Number of chocolate = 21

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Cost of Cinnamon candle , c = $3.50

Cost of chocolate candle , d = $2.50

Total amount raised, T = $94.50

d = 2c - 3

Total amount = (cost of Cinnamon * number sold) + (cost of chocolate * number sold)

94.50 = (3.50 * c) + (2.50 * (2c-3))

94.50 = 3.50c + 5c - 7.5

94.50 = 8.50c - 7.5

94.50 + 7.5 = 8.50c

102 = 8.50c

c = 102 / 8.50

c = 12

d = 2c - 3

d = 2(12) - 3

d = 24 - 3

d = 21

describing distributions is one of the key skills you’ll need to earn a high score on the ap statistics exam. if you need proof of this, just flip through some past exam questions, which can be found at the collegeboard website. you’ll notice that the first free response question is almost always a question requiring you to look at a graph and describe it.
