Answer:

Number of small vehicles washed were 60.

Step-by-step explanation:

Soccer team collected $800 by charging $5 for the small vehicles and $10 for larger vehicles.

Amount collected was modeled by the equation

5x + 10y = 800

Where x = Number of small vehicles

y = Number of larger vehicles

If y = 5 then we have to calculate the number of small vehicles washed.

By putting y = 50 in the equation,

5x + 10(50) = 800

5x + 500 = 800

5x = 800 - 500

5x = 300

x = \frac{300}{5}

x = 60

Therefore, number of small vehicles washed were 60.

Plug 50 into y and find x.

5x + 10 (50) = 800
5x + 500 = 800
5x = 800 - 500
5x = 300
x = 300 ÷ 5
x = 60

A cash register contains q quarters. Write an algebraic expression that represents the total amount of money (in dollars).
kati45 [8]

Answer:

0.25q

Step-by-step explanation:

A cash register is a machine used in small business that sums, display and records the total amount made by each sale. A cash register also has a drawer which is used to store money.

A quarter is a coin in the United States which is 25 cents.

Converting 25 cents to dollars:

100 cents = $1

25 cents = 25 cents × $1 / 100 cent = $0.25

The total amount of money registered = number of quarters × $0.25

The total amount of money registered = q × $0.25 = 0.25q

Pietro made 18 baskets during a basketball game.The number of 3 pointers are 3 more than half of the 2 point shots.how many type
blagie [28]

Total points is 23

<u>Explanation:</u>

Given:

Total number of baskets = 18

Let the number of 2 pointer shots be x

Let the number of 3 pointer shots be y

According to the question:

y = \frac{x}{2} + 3                  -1

The equation can be formed as:

\frac{x}{2} + 3 + x = 18

On solving this equation further we get:

\frac{x+6+2x}{2} = 18\\\\9x = 36\\\\x = 4

Putting the value of x = 4 in equation 1

y = \frac{x}{2}+3\\ \\y = \frac{4}{2} + 3\\\\y = 5

Points for 2 pointer shots = 4 X 2

                                        = 8

Points for 3 pointer shots = 5 X 3

                                        = 15

Total points = 8 + 15

                  = 23

Therefore, total points is 23

Step-by-step explanation:

In algebra, the word term refers to single numbers(10),  variables<em>(</em><em>y</em><em>)</em> also the product of the two(<em>10y</em>).

In the given expression : <em>ab+cd+ef+gh .</em>

We have four terms;

  • ab
  • cd
  • ef
  • gh

A factor is part of a product. For the given equation we Four terms each term will have two factors.

  • <em>ab</em>- is a product of factor a and b
  • <em>cd- </em>is a product of factor<em> c </em>and<em> d</em>
  • <em>ef-</em>is a product of factor<em> e </em>and<em> f</em>
