Question

Alliance Cannery has two assembly lines. One produces 24 cans of fruit per minute; the other produces 64 cans of vegetables per minute. Alliance Cannery just received an order for 384 cans of food, which can be made up of a combination of fruit and vegetables. What two variables can you define to write an equation to match this scenario?
x = number of minutes for fruit cans and y = number of minutes for vegetable cans

x = total number of minutes and y = total number of cans

x = number of minutes for fruit and y = total number of cans

x = total number of minutes and y = number of minutes for vegetables


PLEASE ANSWER QUICK

Answer 1

The two variables that you can define to write an equation to match this scenario is this:

• 24x + 64y = 364

Where;

• x = number of minutes for fruit cans and y = number of minutes for vegetable cans.

What is the best equation for this problem?

The best equation for this problem is the one that can show the variables which represent the number of minutes for fruit cans and the number of minutes for vegetable cans.

Since Alliance Cannery, has an order of 364 cans, the x and y variables will need to be crossed with the amount of production per minute. Given this fact, the option offers an expression that appropriately captures the text.
