Fruit Basket Sales Equations

Easy Heart Of Algebra Systems Of Linear Equations And Inequalities

Maria is selling two types of fruit baskets, Basket A and Basket B. She sells Basket A for $10 each and Basket B for $15 each. One day, she sold a total of 30 baskets and made $360 in sales. You need to determine how many baskets of each type she sold. Let x represent the number of Basket A sold and y represent the number of Basket B sold. Based on this information, which of the following systems of equations represents the scenario?

1. The total number of baskets sold is given by the equation: $x + y = 30$.

2. The total sales are given by the equation: $10x + 15y = 360$.

The system of equations is: $x + y = 30$ and $10x + 15y = 360$.

The system of equations is: $x + y = 30$ and $10x - 15y = 360$.

The system of equations is: $x - y = 30$ and $10x + 15y = 360$.

The system of equations is: $x + y = 15$ and $10x + 15y = 360$.
