A baker is calculating the charge for two types of cookies.

What formula tells the cost, in dollars, if chocolate chip cookies are $1.50 per dozen and lemon frosteds are $1.00 per dozen? Let \( c \) represent the number of dozens of chocolate chip cookies, \( L \) represent the number of dozens of lemon frosteds, and \( T \) represent the total charge.

A) \( T = (L + c) \)
B) \( T = 1.00c + 1.50L \)
C) \( T = 1.50c + 1.00L \)
D) \( T = 150c + 100L \)

Answer :

The total charge for the two types of cookies is the sum of the charge for c dozens of chocolate chip cookies for $1.50/dozen which becomes 1.5c and those of L dozens of lemon frosteds fro $1.00/dozen which is 1.00L.
The answer to this item is letter "C. T = 1.50c + 1.00L".
