Question

A high school basketball team has a budget specifically for towels and extra basketballs. A towel costs $6 and a basketball costs $30. Assume the budget is $300 and that 25 towels are needed for the team for the entire season. Use a standard form equation to determine how many basketballs may be purchased by the team. A. 5 B. 15 C. 30 D. 275

Answer 1

Answer:

5

Step-by-step explanation:

Towels are $6.

25x6= $150

The budget is $300.

$300-$150=$150 left over.

How many basketballs can you buy if they cost $30 per basketball.

$150/30 = 5

You can buy 5 basketballs with 0 dollars remaining.
