Answer:

Let the loaves sold be  and rolls sold be  .

Given:

Cost for 1 loaf of bread = $3

∴ Cost of  loaves of bread =  

Cost of 1 roll of bread = $1

∴ Cost of  rolls =  

Total cost of the baked goods = $24

Therefore, as per question,

Now, the graph is shown below.

The vertical axis represent the rolls sold and the horizontal axis represent the loaves sold.

Draw a horizontal line from 12 mark on the vertical axis to the given line to meet at point A. Now, from point A, draw a vertical line to meet the horizontal axis at point B. Point B is the number of loaves sold.

From the graph, loaves sold are 4 when rolls sold are 12.
