Question

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 , where x represents the number of small 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?.

Answer 1

You say $10x50=$500
$800 -$500=$300
$300/$5=60
There were 60 small vehicles washed in total
