The Oakville High School Marching Band sold gift wrap to earn money for a band trip. Solid color gift wrap sells for $3.50 per roll and printed gift wrap sells for $5 per roll. The band needs to earn $2,500 for an upcoming competition. If the band sells 325 rolls of printed paper, write and solve a linear equation to find the number of sold paper they must sell

Let, number of solid color gift sold is x and printed gift wrap is y.

Also, number of printed paper sold , 325.

Expressing, it in mathematical equation :

y = 325     1)

Also, The band needs to earn $2,500 for an upcoming competition.

So ,

3.5x + 5y = 2500     2)

Solving equation 1 and 2 :

3.5x + 5(325) = 2500

3.5x = 2500 - 1625

3.5x = 875

x = 250

Therefore, number of solid paper they must sell is 250.

Hence, this is the required solution.

the equivalent expression are always the hardest ones but you look at the gcf also

step-by-step explanation:

a mantle plume is an upwelling of abnormally hot rock within the earth's mantle. as the heads of mantle plumes can partly melt when they reach shallow depths, they are thought to be the cause of volcanic centers known as hotspots and probably also to have caused flood basalts.
