Erin is 3 years younger than twice Alex's age. Their ages combined are 33 years. How old are Alex and Erin. If x=Erin's age and y=Alex's age, choose the system that matches the situation.

• x + y = 33
  y = 2x - 3
• x + y = 33
  x = 2y - 3
• x + y = 33
  x = 3 - 2y
• x + y = 3
  x = 33 - 2y

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

The talent show committee sold a total of 530 tickets in advance. Student tickets cost $3 each and the adult tickets cost $4 each. If the total receipts were $1740, which system could be used to find how many of each type of ticket were sold?

• S + A = 530
  3S + 4A = 1740
• S + A = 530
  4S + 3A = 1740
• S + A = 1740
  3S + 4A = 530
• S + A = 1740
  4S + 3A = 530

Saulo 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, Saulo 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
