Two families went to Rollercoaster World. The Brown family paid $170 for 3 children and 2 adults. The Peckham family paid $360 for 4 children and 6 adults. If x is the price of a child's ticket in dollars and y is the price of an adult's ticket in dollars, write a system of equations that models this situation.
3x + 2y = 170
4x + 6y = 360
What is the solution?

At an amusement park, the cost for an adult admission is a, and for a child the cost is c. For a group of six that included two children, the cost was $325.94. For a group of five that included three children, the cost was $256.95. All ticket prices include tax. Write a system of equations, in terms of a and c, that models this situation.
2c + 4a = 325.94
3c + 2a = 256.95
How many solutions are there?

An ice cream shop sells small and large sundaes. One day, 30 small sundaes and 50 large sundaes were sold for $420. Another day, 15 small sundaes and 35 large sundaes were sold for $270. Sales tax is included in all prices. If x is the cost of a small sundae and y is the cost of a large sundae, write a system of equations to represent this situation.
30x + 50y = 420
15x + 35y = 270
Write the equations for the system below:
y = 5/3x + 2
y = -3

Dana went shopping for plants to put in her garden. She bought three roses and two daisies for $31.88. Later that day, she went back and bought two roses and one daisy for $18.92. If r represents the cost of one rose and d represents the cost of one daisy, write a system of equations that models this situation.
3r + 2d = 31.88
2r + d = 18.92
