    1. 30 tubs costing $60 and 300 empty cones costing $15

    2. $165

    Step-by-step explanation:

    1.

    Cost of 1 tub = $2

    each tub fills 10 cones

    number of tubs required to make 300 cones = No. of cones : no. of cones

    filled per tub

    number of tubs required to make 300 cones = 300 cones : 10 cones

    Number of tubs required to make 300 cones = 30 tubs

    price of 1 tub = $2

    price of 30 tubs = 30*2

    = $60

    price of each empty cone =.05c

    price of 300 empty cones =.05*300

    = $15

    Therefore we need to but 30 tubs which will cost us $60 and the price of 300 empty cones will be $15

    the total cost of producing 300 cones = $60 + $15

    = $75

    2.

    Total profit made on the day = total sales - total cost

    total sales = number of cones sold * per unit cost

    = 300*.8

    = $240

    Total profit = $240 - $75

    total profit = $165
