As a food production manager, you are creating a training guide on the standard procedure for calculating custom bulk snack mixes. Arrange the steps for solving a mixture problem using a system of equations in the correct logical order.

Imagine you are a production supervisor at 'Summit Snacks' preparing a 50-pound batch of a custom trail mix using almonds ($a$) and chocolate chips ($c$). The almonds cost 9 dollars per pound, the chocolate chips cost 3 dollars per pound, and the total budget for the batch is 390 dollars. When setting up a system of linear equations to find the required amount of each ingredient, which equation represents the total value (cost) constraint?

As a production supervisor at 'Apex Snacks,' you are training a new team member on how to set up calculations for custom bulk orders. To ensure the production team prepares the correct ratios, you must define the components of the system of equations. Match each mathematical term or equation with the production constraint or definition it represents for a 50-pound batch of trail mix made of nuts ($x$) priced at 9 dollars per pound and raisins ($y$) priced at 4 dollars per pound.

As a quality assurance lead at 'Gourmet Mixes,' you are verifying a mathematical model for a 50-pound batch of trail mix with a target price of 7 dollars per pound. True or False: To correctly represent the total cost of the production run, the 'total value' constraint equation should be set equal to 7.
