Identify Solutions of Linear Systems

Enterprise charges to rent compact cars for a fixed amount per day plus a fixed amount for each mile driven. Batman rented a car for 6 days, drove it 550 miles and spent $337. Superman rented the same car for 3 days, drove for 350 miles and spent $185. Set up the system. Let "d" represent the fixed charge per day and "m" represent the cost per mile.

• 6d + 550m = 337

  3d + 350m = 185

• 6d + 550m = 185

  3d + 350m = 337

• 6m + 550d = 337

  3m + 350d = 185

• 6m + 550d = 185

  3m + 350d = 337

A system of two identical (overlapping) lines will have how many solutions?

Write a system of equation to solve the following situation. Two groups of people order food at a restaurant. one group order 4 pizzas and 7 salads for $34.50. The other group orders 8 pizzas and 3 salads for $30.50. Find the cost of each item. Let p = pizza and s = salad.

• 4p +7s = 30.50 and 8p + 3s = 34.50

  A pizza costs $2. 40 and a salad costs $3.40

• 4p +7s = 34.50 and 8p + 3s = 30.50

  A pizza costs $2. 50 and a salad costs $3.50

• 4p -7s = 34.50 and 8p - 3s = 30.50

  A pizza costs $1.50 and a salad costs $4.50

• 4p +7s = 34.50 and 8p + 3s = 30.50

  A pizza costs $3.50 and a salad costs $2.50
