Let's define the variables: b - number of bags, and c - number of caps.
The first equation represents the total number of items: b + c = 2000.
The second equation represents the total cost of the items: 10b + 5c = 12500.
The Jackson jammers are giving away bags and caps at their next game. The bags, b, cost them $10 each and the caps l, c, are $5 each. They planned to give away 2000 total items and have a budget of $12,500. Write the pair of linear equations that model this situation
