    2.5b + 1.5c ≥ 150

    Example 100 brownies and 50 cookies

    Step-by-step explanation:

    To write an expression, define the variables.

    c is number of cookies

    b is number of brownies

    To find the total money they earned, write 2.5b + 1.5c which includes the cost of each brownie and cookie.

    2.5b + 1.5c ≥ 150 so you have at least $150.

    This means you could sell 100 brownies and 50 cookies and earn $325.
