Answer: [tex]2.25x+2.25y=630[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Let be "x" the number of apple pies that Karoline  has to sell to meet her goal and "y" the number of pumpkin pies that Karoline has to sell to meet her goal.

The exercise explains that the comission she earns for each apple pie she sells is: [tex]\$2.25[/tex]. Then the total comission she earns for apple pies she sells can represented with:

[tex]2.25x[/tex]

The comission Karoline earns for each pumpkin pie she sells is: [tex]\$2.25[/tex]. Then the total comission she earns for pumpkin pies she sells can represented with:

[tex]2.25y[/tex]

Knowing this, we can write the following equation that models the different number of pies she has to sell to meet her goal:

[tex]2.25x+2.25y=630[/tex]
