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

On Monday Joe bought 10 cups of coffee and 5 doughnuts for his office at the cost of $16.50.   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

Your family goes to a restaurant for dinner. There are 6 people in your family. Some order the chicken dinner for $14.80, and some order steak for $17. If the total bill was $91, which system best represents the situation? 

• x + y = 6
  14.80x + 17y = 91
• x + y = 91
  14.80x + 17y = 6
• x + y = 6
  14.80y + 17x = 91
• x + y = 91
  14.80x+ 17y = 6
