Question

Photography World has a portrait special. A three-pose portrait package has a sitting fee of $35, and a six-pose package has a sitting fee of $60. On a Saturday, $690 was collected in sitting fees. Which equation can be used to represent x, the number of three-pose portrait packages and y, the number of six-pose portrait packages?

Answer 1

We know that a three-pose portrait package has a sitting fee of $35 and  a six-pose package has a sitting fee of $60. The total amount they collect is $690.

$\text{Therefore, the equation can be}$ $35x + 60y = 690$
