MULTIPLE CHOICE QUESTION

On Monday Joe bought 10 cups of coffee and 5 doughnuts for his office at the cost of $16.50. It turns out that the doughnuts were more popular than the coffee. On Tuesday he bought 5 cups of coffee and 10 doughnuts for a total of $14.25.


(Let c represent coffee and d represent doughnuts )

10c + 5d = 14.25

5c + 10d = 16.50

10c + 5d = 16.50

5c + 10d = 14.25

c + d = 10

5c + 10d = 16.50

c + d = 5

5c + 10d = 16.50

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?


(Let x represent apples and y represent bananas)

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

There are 15 animals in a barn. These animals are horses and chickens. There are 44 legs in all. Which system of equations represents the situation?


(Let x represent horses and y represent chickens)

x + y = 15

4x + 2y = 44

4x + 2y = 15

x + y = 44

x = 2y + 44

4x = y + 15

2x - 4y = 44

x - y = 15
