The soccer team collected $800 at a car wash fundraiser They charged $5.00 for small vehicles and $10 00 for larger vehicles. The amount collected can be modeled by the equation s +10y-B0o, where represents the n vehicles and y represents the number of larger vehicles if the number of larger vehicles washed was 50, how many small vehicles were washed in total
