Part A Steve buys 2 lb of grapefruit and 3 lb of oranges for $720. Kennedy buys 4 lb of grapefruit and 2 lb of oranges for $8.80. Let x represent the
price per pound for grapefruit, and let y represent the price per pound for oranges. Choose the system of equations that models the stuation
A 2x + 3y = 7.20
2x + 4y = 8.80
OB. 3x + 2y = 720
4x + 2y = 8.80
C. 2x + 3y = 720
4x + 2y = 8.80
D. 2x + 3y = 8.80
4x + 2y = 7.20
Part B
Steve buys 2 lb of grapefruit and 3 lb of oranges for $7.20. Kennedy buys 4 tb of grapefruit and 2 tb of oranges for $8.80. Let x represent in
