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?
4x + 6y = 3
13.5x - 13y = 6
x + y = 4
x - y = 6
4x + 6y = 13
3x + 7y = 13.5
4x - 6y = 13
3x - 7y = 13.5

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?
t + n = 54
t = 3n + 8
t + n = 54
n = 3t + 8
t + n = 54
t = 3n - 8
t + n = 8
t = 3n + 54
Caitlin won a bag full of money! She has 49 bills in all. She counts $1430. There are twenty dollar bills and fifty dollar bills. How many of each bill does Caitlin have? Which system best represents the situation?
x + y = 1430
20x + 50y = 49
x + y = 49
10x + 5y = 1430
x + y = 49
20x + 50y = 1430
x + y = 49
x + y = 1430

3x+3y=120
6xy=120
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?
3H + 2D = 315
2H + 4D = 450
3H + 2D = 450
