Question

lisa wants to make at least $300.00 selling candy. Hard candy cost $3.00 per piece and chocolates cost cost $6.00 per piece. How many pieces of each type of candy could Lisa sell in order to make at least $300.00

Answer 1

We have to write an equation for this problem. 
Hard candy = x
Chocolate = y
3x+6y=300

To find y, x=0

3(0)+6y=300
6y=300
y=50

To find x, y=0

3x+6(0)=300
3x=300
x=100
