Answer:

Equation system listed as (4)

Explanation:

There were only two deliveries - one on Monday and one on Tuesday. Each charged as a single fee f. On Monday, 2 dozens bagels were purchased, that is 2b, while on Tuesday 3 dozens were purchased, that is, 3b. And we know the invoices also: $8 (Mon), $11 (Tue), so

2b + f = 8

3b + f = 11

which is listed under choice (4).

If you are dying to know the cost of a dozen of bagels:

b = $3

and the delivery fee is $2
