Mandy is selling burritos for $2 each and tortillas for $1 each. A customer bought a total of 13 burritos and tortillas for $20. Which system of equations best describes the number of burritos, b, and the number of tortillas, t, the customer bought? Oa b+t= 20 26 +t = 13 Ob b+t= 13 26+t = 20 Oe b+t = 13 b+2t = 20 b+t=20 b+ 2t = 13
