Homer sells tickets for admission to your school play and collects a total of $104. Admission prices are $6 for adults and $4 for children. He sold 21 tickets total. Write a system to represent this situation assuming "a" represents # of adult tickets and "c" represents # of children's tickets.

• a + c = 21
  6a + 4c = 104
• a + c = 104
  6a + 4c = 21
• a + c = 21
  6c + 4a = 104
• a + c = 104
  6c + 4a = 21

A driving range charges $4 to rent a golf club plus $2.75 for every bucket of golf balls you hit. Write an equation that shows the total cost c of hitting b buckets of golf balls.

• c = 2.75b + 4
• c = 2.75b
• c =  4b- 2.75
• c = 2.75b - 4
