The Brittle Bird Store prepares bird-seed blends by mixing sunflower seeds and millet and packaging them in 5-pound bags
for sale. Sunflower seed (s) is regularly sold for $1.75 per pound, and millet (m) is sold for $2.50 per pound. The mixture is
sold for $11.60.
Which system of equations can be used to find the number of pounds of each type of seed in
the mixture?

$ 4.25(s + m) = 11.60
8 +m=5

s + m = 11.60
1.75s + 2.5m = 5

s + m = 11.60
1.75s + 2.5m = 5

s + m=5
1.75 +2.5m = 11.60
