The soccer team collected $800 at a car wash fundraiser. They charged $5.00 for small vehicles and $10.00 for larger vehicles. T

he amount collected can be modeled by the equation 5x 10y = 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?

Answer:

The number of small vehicles washed in total = 60

Step-by-step explanation:

Amount of money that soccer team selected at a car wash fundraiser = $800

Amount of money charged for small vehicles = $5

Amount of money charged for larger vehicles = $10

The amount collected can be modeled by the equation 5x + 10y = 800 , where x represents the number of small vehicles and y represents the number of larger vehicles

Now, the number of larger vehicles washed was 50 and we need to find the number of small vehicles washed.

So, y = 50 and find the value of x from the modeled equation

⇒ 5x + 10y = 800

⇒ 5x + 10 × 50 = 800

⇒ 5x + 500 = 800

⇒ 5x = 300

⇒ x = 60

Thus, The number of small vehicles washed in total = 60

So, we know this:

<span> 5x+10y = 800

and we also know that the number of larger vehicles was 50.

So we can substitute:

</span>
<span>5x+10y = 800

</span>
<span>5x+10*50 = 800

and calculate:

</span><span>5x+500 = 800

and now subtract 500 from both sides:

5x=300

and divide by 5:

x=60.

and this is our answer: there were 60 smaller vehicles washed!

Write the equation of each line in slope intercept form (If possible please show work)
kow [346]

Answer:

y = -2/3x-9

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope intercept form of a line is

y = mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

y = -2/3x+b

We have a point we can substitute into the line

-5 = -2/3(-6)+b

Subtract 4 from each side

-5-4 =4+b-4

-9 =b

y = -2/3x-9

Dan saved twice as much as Brett. Maria saved $60 more than Brett. If they saved $600 altogether, how much did Maria save?
givi [52]
Setting it up, we have Dan + Bret + Maria all saving 600.00
Dan = 2B
Bret = B
Maria = B+60

2B + B + B + 60 = 600
4B = 540
B = 135

Dan = 2(135) = 270
Brett = 135
Maria = 135 + 60 = 195
