5 packs of stamps and 7 packs of envelopes. There will be a total of 70 envelopes and stamps.
I used a graphing calculator for this.
The solution my calculator got was:
(-2.625, 0.688) My calculator is very accurate, I don't think the test expects it to be like that.
Let's find the closest coordinates.
"B" is the closest.
I hope this helps!

Answer:
6.25n + 3.50
$34.75
Step-by-step explanation:
Break down the important information given in the problem.
The one-time delivery fee is 3.50. This is only paid one time an never again, making it the <u>constant</u>, a number that does not change.
Each lunch costs 6.25. This amount will increase depending on how many times Mr. Jackson orders lunches, "n" times. This number is the <u>rate</u> because it changes. The rate is attached to the variable.
If you add the amounts together, that is the total cost of ordering lunches.
6.25n + 3.50
(Reember expressions do not have the equal sign).
To find the cost of ordering 5 lunches, use the expression. Substitute "n" for 5 because "n" represents the number of lunches ordered.
6.25n + 3.50
= 6.25(5) + 3.50 Simplify by multiplying 5 and 6.25
= 31.25 + 3.50 Add the two values
= 34.75 Total cost of 5 lunches
Therefore the cost of ordering 5 lunches is $34.75.
