The Henderson Hawks minor-league baseball team is giving away baseballs an
game. The balls cost $3 each and the towels cost $2 each. The team wants to give away 200 items and have 500 to spend. How many of each item should the team give away Show your
work or explain your reasoning.
Answer:
They should give away 100 balls and 100 towels
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of balls = x
Let the number of towels = y
x + y = 200........ Equation 1
y = 200 - x
$3 × x + $2 × y = $5000
3x + 2y = 5000...... Equation 2
3x + 2(200 - x)= 5000
3x + 400 - 2x = 5000
Collect like terms
3x - 2x = 500 - 400
x = 100
Number of balls to be given away = 100
Note:
y = 200 - x
y = 200 - 100
y = 100
Number of towels to be given away = 100
Therefore, they should give away 100 balls and 100 towels

I hope this helped! This is because the division of numbers and factors are equal to this.
We are given: The year of the empire fell = 1610.
We have x as a variable that represents the year after the given year 1610.
According to problem, the year after the year number 1610 will have a number that greater than 1610.
We can make a statement for inequality to be written.
"The year after the 1610 is greater than 1610".
The year after the 1610 is x and we use gerater than symbol >.
So, we can setup an inequality as:
x > 1610 : It can be read as x is greater than 1610.
