Question 1101375: One month, a company spent $5803.80 to print and mail letters and postcards to its customers. The company paid $0.70 per letter and $0.52 per postcard. The next month, the company mailed the same number of letters and postcards, but paid $0.72 per letter and $0.55 per postcard. The total cost for the second month was $6041.40. Let x equal the number of letters mailed and y equal the number of postcard mailed. Which system of equations could be solved to find the number of postcards mailed each month?
A. 0.55x+0.52y=5803.80, 0.72x+0.70y=6041.40
B. 0.70x+0.72y=5803.80, 0.52x+0.55y=6041.40
C. 0.70x+0.52y=5803.80, 0.72x+0.55y=6041.40
D. 0.52x+0.70y=5803.80, 0.55x+0.72y=6041.40
