Not including tax, a total of 19 pens and markers cost $11.50. The pens cost $0.25 each, and the markers cost $0.75 each. Write the system of equations that could be used to solve for the number of pens, p, and the number of markers, m, bought.(4 points)
A. p + m = ___
B. ___ p + ___ m =
A. p + m = 19
B. 0.25p + 0.75m = 11.50
A. p + m = 19
B. 0.25p + 0.75m = 11.50
A. The equation representing the total number of pens and markers would be:
p + m = 19
B. The equation representing the total cost of pens and markers would be:
0.25p + 0.75m = 11.50
