The length of Sally's rectangular garden is 4 feet longer than 3 times the width. The perimeter of her garden is 72 feet. Which system of equations can be used to find the length, l, and width, w, of her garden?

• $l=3w+4$

  $2l+2w=72$
  

• $l=3w-4$
  $2l+2w=72$

• $l=4w+3$
  $2l+2w=72$
  

• $l=4w-3$
  $2l+2w=72$

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?  Let c represent the number of cups of coffee, and let d represent the number of doughnuts.

• 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
