What is Equation?

Two or more expressions with an Equal sign is called as Equation

Given,

10.25 for each magazine subscription and $0.50 for each raffle ticket,

M=10.25 and T=0.50

Last week:

14 magazine subscriptions and 36 raffle tickets for a fundraiser.

14M+36T

Now substitute M and T values

14(10.25)+36(0.50)

143.5+18

161.5

Current week:

18 magazine subscriptions and 26 raffle tickets.

18M+26T

Now substitute M and T values

18(10.25)+26(0.50)

184.5+13

197.5

So total money he earned for two weeks is 161.5+197.5

$359

Hence $359 money did he earn for the fundraiser over these two weeks
