A volleyball league organizer organizer collects $2,040 from both divisions of volleyball team the blues division 160 per team . Red division cost 180 per team .HOW many teams will play one game

Respuesta :

Answer:

12 teams.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let B represent number of Blue division teams and R represent number of Red division teams.    

We have been given that blue division cost 160 per team, so cost of B blue division teams would be [tex]160B[/tex].

We are also told that red division cost 180 per team, so cost of R Red division teams would be [tex]180R[/tex].

Since volleyball league organizer organizer collects $2,040 from both divisions of volleyball team, so we can represent this information in an equation as:

[tex]160B+180R=2040[/tex]

Since it is a league match, so both divisions must have equal teams. This means [tex]B=R[/tex].

Upon substituting this value in our equation, we will get:

[tex]160R+180R=2040[/tex]

[tex]340R=2040[/tex]

[tex]R=\frac{2040}{340}[/tex]

[tex]R=6[/tex]

Since the number of teams is blue division is equal to teams in red division, therefore, 12 teams will play in game.
