Question

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

Answer 1

The team washed 60 small cars

Answer 2

Answer:60

Step-by-step explanation:

as given 5x+10y=800 -------1

where x is no of small vehicle and y is o. of lar vehicles

d y=50

then in eq 1

⇒5*x+10*50=800

⇒5*x+500=800

⇒5*x=300

⇒x=60

so no smaal vehcles was 60
