Mrs. Szymanski bought her sixth hour pizza and pop. Each pizza was $8.50 and each can of pop was $0.75. Her total (before tax) came to $52.75. She bought a total of 29 items. How many pizzas and cans of pop did she buy? Write a system of equations that models this real-world situation. (Do not solve).

• $x+y=29$
  $8.50x+0.75y=52.75$

• $x+y=52.75$
  $8.50x+0.75y=29$

• $8.50x+y=29$
  $x+0.75y=52.75$

Candy at the gas station cost $1.50 per piece. Gatorade cost $2.25 per bottle. You can spend no more than $15 on candy and Gatorade, and you need at least 9 items in all to pass out to your friends. Write a system of inequalities that models this real-world situation. (Do not solve).

• $x+y\ge9$
  $1.50x+2.25y\le15$

• $x+y\ge15$
  $1.50x+2.25y\le9$

Milk costs $2.70 per liter and water costs $1.50 per liter. You can spend no more than $12 on drinks, and you need at least 6 liters in all. Write the system of inequalities that models this situation.

• $x+y\ge6$
  $2.70x+1.50y\le12$

• $x+1.50y\le6$
  $2.70x+y\le12$

• $x+y\ge12$
  $2.70+1.50y\le6$

Joe and John go to the store to shop for life size teddy bears and balloons for deserving ladies at Morton West. Joe buys 7 life size teddy bears and 12 balloons. John buys 10 life size teddy bears and 5 balloons. Joe spends $176 and John spends $236.25. Select the two equations to setup a system of equations that models this real-world situation. (Do not solve).

• 7x+12y=176

• 10x+5y=236.25

• 7x+10y=176

• 12x+10y=236.25

• 7x+12y=236.25

Ana the little Girl Scout wants to sell 900 boxes of Girl Scout cookies this year. Each Thin Mint box costs $4.25 and each Samoas costs $4.50. She knows if she reaches her goal, she will make $3944.25. Select the two equations to setup a system of equations that models this real-world situation. (Do not solve).

• x+y=900

• 4.25x+4.50y=3944.25

• x+y=3944.25

• 4.25x+4.50y=900

• 4.25x+y=900
