The scouts sold small and large boxes of cookies as a fund raiser. One scout sold 7 small boxes and 12 large boxes for $54.00. Another scout sold 5 small boxes and 10 large boxes for $60.00. The scout leader wrote a system of equations to represent the their sales.

7 x + 12 y = 54. 5 x + 10 y = 60.
