I need to set up a system of equations that represents the situations below.
The BETA club is selling tote bags to raise money for their trip. It cost the club $10.00 to purchase the large bags and $7.00 to purchase the small bags. They sold the large bags for $20.00 and the small bags for $10.00. The club paid $600.00 to purchase the bags and raised 1000.00 from selling the bags.
----------------------
Purchase Cost equation: 10L + 7S = 600
Revenue equation::::::: 20L + 10S = 1000
