The soccer team collected at a car wash fundraiser. They charged $5.00 for small vehicles and $10.00 fir larger vehicles. The amount collected can be modeled by the equation 5x + 10y= 800 where x represent the number of small vehicle and y represent the number of larger vehicles. If the number of larger vehicles washed was 50 how many small vehicles were washed in total

Respuesta :

Answer:

60

Step-by-step explanation:

So you have

5x + 10y = 800

and you are given there are 50 large vehicles that was washed so

10 * 50 = 500

now you have

5x = 300 divide both sides by 5 and you get

x = 60

Answer:

x=30

Step-by-step explanation:

y= larger cars, x= smaller cars

5x+10y=800

5x+10(50)=800

5x+500=800

5x=800-500

5x=300

x=30
