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 5 x plus 10 y equals 800, 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? 55 60 130 150

Answer 2

150

Explanation:

Step 1: Plug in what we know

5x + 10(5) = 800

Step 2: Solve for x (smaller cars)

5x + 50 = 800

5x = 750

x = 150
