The cost of 5 squash and 2 zucchini is $1.32. Three squash and 1 zucchini cost $0.75. Write a system of equations.

• 5q + 2z = 1.32
  1z = 0.75

• 5q + 2z = 1.32
  3q + 1z = 0.75

• q + z = 1.32
  q + z = 0.75

• 5q + 2z = 0.75
  3q + 1z = 1.32

Alexandra finds that she can give 3 haircuts and 2 hair dyes in 315 minutes. Giving 2 haircuts and 4 hair dyes takes 450 minutes. Which system of equations represents the situation?

• 3x + 2y = 315

  2x + 4y = 450

• 3x + 2y = 450

  2x + 4y = 315

• 2x + 2y = 315

  3x + 4y = 450

• 3x - 2y = 315

  2x - 4y = 450
