The Lincoln high school student council wants to raise $300 to make a donation to a homeless shelter. To help the students earn the money the principal has agreed to pay $15 for each member who picks up litter outside, p, and $10 for each member who cleans the hallways, c, All 25 members of the student council will be participating. Write the pair of linear equations that model this sitt

uation.

The two equations can be written as:
15p + 10c = 300
p + c = 25

Where p represents the number of members who pick up litter outside and c represents the number of members who clean the hallways.
