Answer:

[tex]$ \left \{ {{y= 2250 + 75x} \atop {y=2750 + 25x}} \right. $[/tex]

If Kayla's team wins 10 games on each team, she would be paid the same amount.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

Let the amount of money earned be y, and the number of games they win be x.

For the Lady Falcons, the equation would be y = 2250 + 75x.

For the Lady Hornets, the equation would be y = 2750 + 25x.

The system would be [tex]\left \{ {{y= 2250 + 75x} \atop {y=2750 + 25x}} \right.[/tex].
