Answer 1

15u + 141 = 420

Explanation:

So basically we are modelling how much the coach is spending. Each player is given a uniform and a basketball

We can use 'u' as the cost of a single uniform

We can use 'b' as the cost of a single basketball

Since there is 15 players we must give a ball and uniform to each so

15u + 15b = 420

The problem gives us the cost of each basketball: 9.40

so now 15u + 15(9.4) = 420

15u + 141 = 420
