Model and Write Equations and Inequalities

The equation C = 50 + 1.25 (x – 100) models the yearly cost, C, to use a professional photo printing service.  To use the service, Jessica pays a $50 yearly subscription fee and $1.25 per photo after the first 100 photos (the first 100 photos are included with the $50 subscription).   The variable x represents the number of photographs.   Rewrite the formula for x in terms of C.

There are 50 donkeys and chickens on a farm.  There are a total of 174 legs.  Which system below can be used to figure out how many of each animal the farm has?

• d + c = 174
  4d + 2c = 50

• d + c = 50
  4d + 2c = 174

• d + c = 50
  2d + 4c = 174

• d + c = 174
  2d + 4c = 50

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

Your family goes to a southern style restaurant for dinner. There are 6 total people in your family. Some order chicken for $14 and the rest order steak for $17. The total bill is $99. Write a system that could represent this situation.

• c + s = 6
  14c + 17s = 99

• c + s = 99
  14c + 17s = 6

• c + s = 6
  17c + 14s = 99

• c + s = 99
  17c + 14s = 6
