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)

1 answer

We can create two equations to represent the given situation.
Let's define the variables:
b = number of bags
c = number of caps

The first equation represents the total number of items:
b + c = 2000

The second equation represents the budget:
10b + 5c = 12500
