On Monday Joe bought 10 cups of coffee and 5 doughnuts for his office at the cost of $16.50.  It turns out that the doughnuts were more popular than the coffee.  On Tuesday he bought 5 cups of coffee and 10 doughnuts for a total of $14.25.  Which equations could be used to determine the cost of the coffee? 

• 10c + 5d = 14.25
  5c + 10d = 16.50
• 10c + 5d = 16.50
  5c + 10d = 14.25
• c + d = 10
  5c + 10d = 16.50
• c + d = 5
  5c + 10d = 16.50

A large pizza at Palanzio’s Pizzeria costs $6.80 plus $0.90 for each topping. The cost of a large cheese pizza at Guido’s Pizza is $7.30 plus $0.65 for each topping. Which system of equations could be used to find the number of toppings when both companies cost the same amount? 

• y = 6.80 + .65x
  y=7.30+.90x
• x + y = 6.80
  x + y = 7.30
• y = 6.80+.90x
  y = 7.30 + .65x
• y + .90x = 6.80
  y + .65x = 7.30

Flagship Cinemas sells movie tickets that are $4 for matinees and $7 for regular. One night, the theater sells 578 tickets and collects $3365 in total ticket sales.

Which system best represents the situation?

• 4x + 7y = 578

  x + y = 3365

• 4x + 7y = 3365

  x + y = 578

• 4y + 7x = 578

  x + y = 3365

• 4y + 7x = 3365

  x + y = 578
