Question

A high school basketball team has a budget specifically for towels and extra basketballs. A towel costs $4 and a basketball costs $22. Assume the budget is $350 and that 30 towels are needed for the team for the entire season. Use a standard form equation to determine how many basketballs may be purchased by the team.

Answer 1

let the no. of basket ball be x
x=[350-(30×4)]÷22
x=(350-120)÷22
x=230÷22
x=10about

Answer 2

let the number of basketballs be x
x=350-(30*4)/22
x=350-(120)/22
x=230/22
x=10.4545
