Answer:

b) L+S=80 and 2.75L+3.25S=245

Step-by-step explanation:

L stands for larger softballs. S stands for smaller softballs.

If you are ordering 80 softballs, then L and S represent the number of softballs of each one (large or small) to get a total of 80.

2.75 is the price of a large softball

3.25 is the price of a small softball.

You multiply the amount of each softball to how many of those kinds of softballs you get, you will then get the sum of the amount you ordered for 80 softballs: 245 dollars.

So thus the answer is B

Answer:

L+S=80

2.75L+3.25S=245

Choice B

Step-by-step explanation:

Larger ball costs $2.75.

Smaller ball costs $3.25.

You order a total of 80 softballs for $245.

So L is for number of large balls.

S is for number of small balls.

So we have 80 balls in all, some are small and some are large. This means the number of large plus the number of small equals 80.

So we have this equation L+S=80.

Now if you buy L balls, you spend 2.75 times L on large balls altogether.

If you buy S balls, you spend 3.25 times S on small balls altogether.

So together you spend 2.75L+3.25S.  They gave us that this amount should be equal to 245.

So this equations is 2.75L+3.25S=245

We are looking for the choice that contains these equations:

L+S=80

2.75L+3.25S=245
