A customer paid a total of $6.00 for 68 copies at a print shop. Some of the copies were black and white and the rest were color copies.

·        Each black and white copy cost $0.08.

·        Each color copy cost $0.015

Which system of equations can be used to find b, the number of black and white copies, and c, the number of color copies that the customer paid for at the print shop?

• b + c = 6.00

  0.08b + 0.15c = 68

• b + c = 68

  0.15b + 0.08c = 6.00

• b + c = 6.00

  0.15b + 0.08c = 68

• b + c = 68

  0.08b + 0.15c = 6.00

• The equation of the line is x = 2.5 , and the line is parallel to the x-axis.

• The equation of the line is x = 2.5 , and the line is perpendicular to the x-axis

• The equation of the line is y = 2.5 , and the line is parallel to the x-axis.

• The equation of the line is y = 2.5 , and the line is perpendicu;ar to the x-axis.
