Nancy went to the grocery story.  On Monday she purchased 4 apples and 6 bananas for a total of $13.  On Wednesday she purchased 3 apples and 7 bananas for a total of $13.50.  Which system of equations represents the situation?
a)
4x + 6y = 3
13.5x - 13y = 6
b)
x + y = 4
x - y = 6
c)
4x + 6y = 13
3x + 7y = 13.5
d)
4x - 6y = 13
3x - 7y = 13.5
11.

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? 
a)
1s + 3c = 38
2s + 3c = 52
b)
3s + 1c = 38
3s + 2c = 52
c)
s + c = 38
s + c = 52
d)
3s + 3c = 38
1s + 2c = 52
13.
At a college bookstore, Carla purchased a math textbook and a novel that cost a total of $54, not including tax. If the price of the math textbook, t, is $8 more than 3 times the price of the novel, n, which system of linear equations could be used to determine the price of each book?
a)
t + n = 54
t = 3n + 8
b)
t + n = 54
n = 3t + 8
c)
t + n = 54
t = 3n - 8
d)
t + n = 8
t = 3n + 54
14.
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? 
a)
y = 9.65 + x
y = 8.40 + x
b)
y = 9.65x + 43
y = 8.40x + 58
c)
y =9.65x
y = 8.40x
d)
y = 9.65x - 43
y = 8.40x - 58
