Solving Systems of Linear Equations

You and your friend are buying throw blankets with your names embroidered on them. The cost of the throw blanket is x dollars and the cost of each embroidered letter is y dollars. Your name has 6 letters and the total cost is $29. Your friend's name has 3 letters and the total cost is $24.50. Which system can you use to solve this problem?

Homer sells tickets for admission to your school play and collects a total of $104. Admission prices are $6 for adults and $4 for children. He sold 21 tickets total. Write a system to represent this situation assuming "a" represents # of adult tickets and "c" represents # of children's tickets.

• a + c = 21
  6a + 4c = 104

• a + c = 104
  6a + 4c = 21

• a + c = 21
  6c + 4a = 104

• a + c = 104
  6c + 4a = 21

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
