    System of Equations in Three

    Variables- Word Problems


    1) Billy’s Restaurant ordered 200 flowers for Mother’s Day.  They ordered carnations at $1.50 each,
    roses at $5.75 each, and daisies at $2.60 each.  They ordered mostly carnations, and 20 fewer roses
    than daisies.  The total order came to $589.50.  How many of each type of flower was ordered?

    2) The Arcadium arcade in Lynchburg, Tennessee uses 3 different colored tokens for their game
    machines.  For $20 you can purchase any of the following mixtures of tokens:  14 gold, 20 silver, and
    24 bronze; OR, 20 gold, 15 silver, and 19 bronze; OR, 30 gold, 5 silver, and 13 bronze.  What is the
    monetary value of each token?

    3) Last Tuesday, Regal Cinemas sold a total of 8500 movie tickets.  Proceeds totaled $64,600.  Tickets can
    be bought in one of 3 ways:  a matinee admission costs $5, student admission is $6 all day, and
    regular admissions are $8.50.  How many of each type of ticket was sold if twice as many student
    tickets were sold as matinee tickets?

    4) Andrea sells photographs at art fairs. She prices the photos according to size: small photos cost $10,
    medium photos cost $15, and large photos cost $40. She usually sells as many small photos as
    medium and large photos combined. She also sells twice as many medium photos as large. A booth at
    the art fair costs $300.
    If her sales go as usual, how many of each size photo must she sell to pay for the booth?

    5) Jesse, Maria and Charles went to the local craft store to purchase supplies for making decorations for
    the upcoming dance at the high school. Jesse purchased three sheets of craft paper, four boxes of
    markers and five glue sticks. His bill, before taxes was $24.40. Maria spent $30.40 when she bought
    six sheets of craft paper, five boxes of markers and two glue sticks. Charles, purchases totaled $13.40
