Question

The Jackson Jammers are giving away bags and caps at their next game. The bags, b , cost them $10 each, and the caps, c , cost them $5 each. They plan to give away 2,000 total items and have a budget of $12,500. Write the pair of linear equations that model this situation.(1 point) Responses b+c=12,500; 10b+5c=2,000 b plus c equals 12,500 ; 10 b plus 5 c equals 2,000 b+c=12,500; 5b+10c=2,000 b plus c equals 12,500 ; 5 b plus 10 c equals 2,000 b+c=2,000; 5b+10c=12,50. What’s the answer

Answer 1

The correct pair of linear equations that model this situation is:

b + c = 2,000 (total items)
10b + 5c = 12,500 (total cost)

So, the answer is 10b + 5c = 12,500; b + c = 2,000.
