Bill and Felicia both bake cookies for a party. Bill bakes 3 times as many as Felicia. Felicia bakes 24 fewer cookies than Bill. Bill bakes b cookies and Felicia bakes f cookies. What pair of equations can be used to determine the number of cookies Bill and Felicia bake?

A. b = 3f
f = b - 24

B. b = 3(f + 24)
f = b - 24

C. b = 3f
f = 24 - b

D. f = 3b
b = f - 24

PLEASE HELP ♡

Answer: Below

Step-by-step explanation:

So we start off with b and f. Our first piece of information, Bill baked 3 times as many as Felicia, gives us the equation:

b = 3f

The second piece gives us the equation:

b = f + 24

We have a 3f, but no b = f + 24 in the possible answers. So:

b = f +24

b - 24 = f

Our answer is A.
