The senior class at Rivermont High School rented and filled 11 vans and 3 buses with 283 students. The senior class at Washington High School rented and filled 12 vans and 14 buses with 770 students. Which system of equations solves this problem to show how many students were in each van and each bus?

• 11v + 3b = 283

  12v + 14b = 770

• v + b = 14

  v + b = 16

• 11v + 12v = 283

  3b + 14b = 770

• v + b = 30

  23v + 17b = 1053

Your family goes to a restaurant for dinner. There are 6 people in your family. Some order the chicken dinner (x) for $14.80, and some order steak (y) for $17. If the total bill was $91, which system best represents the situation? 

• x + y = 6

  14.80x + 17y = 91

• x + y = 91

  14.80x + 17y = 6

• x + y = 6

  14.80y + 17x = 91

• x + y = 91

  14.80x + 17y = 6
