6. The cheerleading team is selling candy bars and gummi bears to raise money for new uniforms. They are selling candy bars fo
$2 and gummi bears for
$1.50. They sold 750
pieces of candy and made $1250,
How many of each type of candy did they sell?

250 candy bars and 500 gummi bears

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the amount of candy bars they sold and y be the amount of gummi bears they sold.

We can use this to set up a system of equations:

x+y=750

2x+1.5y=1250

We can change the first equation into:

x=750-y

Then, we can solve the system of equations by substitution (substitute 750-y for x)

2(750-y)+1.5y=1250

1500-2y+1.5y=1250

1500-0.5y=1250

Add 1500 to both sides

-0.5y=-250

Divide both sides by -0.5

y=500

x=750-500=250

They sold 250 candy bars and 500 gummi bears

you need a common difference between consecutive terms to be constant, like 1,2,3,4 or 2,4,6,8, or 1,3,6,9
