Systems of Linear Equations

There are 50 donkeys and chickens on a far.  There are a total of 174 legs.  Which system below can be used to figure out how many of each animal the farm has?

• d + c = 174
  4d + 2c = 50

• d + c = 50
  4d + 2c = 174

• d + c = 50
  2d + 4c = 174

• d + c = 174
  2d + 4c = 50

At a restaurant the cost for a breakfast taco and a small glass of milk is $2.10. The cost for 2 tacos and 3 small glasses of milk is $5.15. If a system of equations is written, which would be the correct representation of the 2 variables?

• t: # of tacos

  m: # of glasses of milk

• t: Cost of each taco

  m: Cost of each glass of milk

• t: total cost

  m: # of food items

• t: Cost of each glass of milk

  m: Cost of each taco
