Monica’s school band held a car wash to raise money for a trip to a parade in New York City. After washing 125 cars, they made $ 775 from a combination of $5.00 quick washes and $8.00 premium washes. Let x represent the number of quick washes and let y represent the number of premium washes. Which system of linear equations represents the situation?
1 answer:
The system of linear equations represents the situation is;
x + y = 125
x + y = 1255x + 8y = 775
<h3>Simultaneous equation</h3>
Simultaneous equation is an equation in two unknown values are being solved for at the same time.
let
number of quick washes = x number of premium washes = y
x + y = 125
5x + 8y = 775
From equation (1)
x = 125 - y
5x + 8y = 775
5(125 - y) + 8y = 775
625 - 5y + 8y = 775
- 5y + 8y = 775 - 625
3y = 150
y = 150/3
y = 50
x + y = 125
x + 50 = 125
x = 125 - 50
x = 75
Therefore, the number of quick washes and premium washes Monica’s school band had is 75 and 50 respectively.
