The school that Stefan goes to is selling tickets to a choral performance. On the first day of ticket sales the school sold 3 senior citizen tickets and 1 child ticket for a total of $38. The school took in $52 on the second day by selling 3 senior citizen tickets and 2 child tickets. Which equations represents the system that could be used?

2s + 3c = 52

3s + 1c = 38
3s + 2c = 52

s + c = 38
s + c = 52

3s + 3c = 38
1s + 2c = 52

Some students want to order shirts with their school logo. One company charges $9.65 per shirt plus a setup fee of $43. Another company charges $8.40 per shirt plus a $58 fee. Which equation represents the number of shirts when both companies charge the same amount?

y = 9.65 + x
y = 8.40 + x

y = 9.65x + 43
y = 8.40x + 58

y =9.65x
y = 8.40x

y = 9.65x - 43
y = 8.40x - 58

On Monday Joe bought 10 cups of coffee and 5 doughnuts for his office at the cost of $16.50.  It turns out that the doughnuts were more popular than the coffee.  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
