4. A customer at a store paid $64 for

3 large candles and 4 small candles.

At the same store, a second

customer paid $4 more than the first

customer for 1 large candle and 8

small candles. The price of each

large candle is the same, and the

price of each small candle is the

same. Which system of equations

can be used to find the price in

dollars of each large candle, x, and

each small candle, y?

a. 4y = 3X + 64

18y = x + 68

C. 3x + 4y = 64

x + 8y = 68

b. 4y = 3x + 64 d. 3x + 4y = 64

8y = x + 60 X + 8y = 60
