A pencil at a stationery store costs $1, and a pen costs $1.50. Stefan spent $7 at the store. He bought a total of 6 items. Which system of equations can be used to
find the number of pencils (x) and pens (/) he bought?
Ox+ 1.5y = 7
X + y = 6
O 1.5x + y = 7
x=6y
Ox + 2y = 7
6x = 1.5y
O 2x + y = 7
6x = 1.5y

Respuesta :

Answer:

The first equation is correct

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer: A

Step-by-step explanation:

Because he bought 6 items, x + y = 6.  Because a pencil costs 1 dollar and a pen costs 1.5 dollars, and Stefan spent 7 dollars, 1x+1.5y=7.
