For every 1/4 metric ton it takes 1/8 hours
then multipling by 8 to make the hours =1
for every 2 metric tons it take 1 hour
so the quotient is 2 metric tons per 1 hour
Answer:
x=2 and y=7
Step-by-step explanation:
Step: Solvey=2x+3for y:
y=2x+3
Step: Substitute2x+3foryiny=3x+1:
y=3x+1
2x+3=3x+1
2x+3+−3x=3x+1+−3x(Add -3x to both sides)
−x+3=1
−x+3+−3=1+−3(Add -3 to both sides)
−x=−2
−x
−1
=
−2
−1
(Divide both sides by -1)
x=2
Step: Substitute2forxiny=2x+3:
y=2x+3
y=(2)(2)+3
y=7(Simplify both sides of the equation)
