System of Equations Problems

Your family goes to Mississippi Fried for dinner. There are 6 people in your family. Some order the chicken fingers for $14.80, and some order the Deluxe Chicken Dinner 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

Last season two running backs on the WCHS football team rushed a combined total of 1550 yards. One rushed 4 times as many yards as the other. Let x and y represent the number of yards each individual player rushed. Which system of equations could be used?

• x + y = 1550

  y = 4x

• x + y = 1550

  y = x + 4

• y - x = 1550

  y = 4x

• y = 1550 + x

  y = x + 4

Last season two running backs on the War Eagles football team rushed a combined total of 1550 yards. One rushed 4 times as many yards as the other. Let x and y represent the number of yards each individual player rushed. Which system of equations could be used?

• x + y = 1550

  y = 4x

• x + y = 1550

  y = x + 4

• y - x = 1550

  y = 4x

• y = 1550 + x

  y = x + 4
