The correct answer is:
- the number of cupcakes sold
- the amount of money you spent on the cupcakes
- the cost of each cupcake sold
The quantity that should be represented with a variable is the number of cupcakes sold.
To represent this quantity with a variable, you can use a letter like "x" or "n". So, let's say we represent the number of cupcakes sold with the variable "x".
Similarly, you can also represent the amount of money you spent on the cupcakes with a variable, let's say "y".
Therefore, the expression that represents how much money you will make each day that you sell cupcakes is:
Amount of money made = Selling price per cupcake * Number of cupcakes sold
In this case, the selling price per cupcake is $2 and the number of cupcakes sold is represented by the variable "x". So, the expression becomes:
Amount of money made = $2 * x
