Christian had brochures printed for a new business venture. Christian originally ordered 4 boxes of black-and-white brochures and 3 boxes of color brochures, which cost a total of $134. After those ran out, Christian spent $120 on 3 boxes of black-and-white brochures and 3 boxes of color brochures. Which system represents this situation?

• x+y=134
  x+y=120

• 3x+3y=134
  4x+3y=120

• 4x+3y=134
  3x+3y=120

• 7xy=134
  6xy=120

David is running a concession stand at a soccer game. He sells nachos and sodas. Nachos cost $1.50 each and sodas cost $0.50 each. At the end of the game, David made a total of $78.50 and sold a total of 87 nachos and sodas combined. Which system of equations represents this situation?

• 1.5x+0.5y=78.5
  x+y=87

• 1.5x+0.5y=78.5
  1.5x+0.5y=87

• x+y=78.5
  1.5x+0.5y=87

• x+y=78.5
  x+y=87

What is the value of the y-coordinate of the solution to the system of equations 
x-2y=1
x+4y=7 

• 1

• -1

• 3

• 4

A large pizza at Palanzio’s Pizzeria costs $6.80 plus $0.90 for each topping. The cost of a large cheese pizza at Guido’s Pizza is $7.30 plus $0.65 for each topping. Which system of equations could be used to find the number of toppings when both companies cost the same amount?

• y = 6.80 + .65x
  y=7.30+.90x

• x + y = 6.80
  x + y = 7.30

• y = 6.80+.90x
  y = 7.30 + .65x

• y + .90x = 6.80
  y + .65x = 7.30

• no

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
