2x + y = 1
3x - y = -6
---------------add
5x = -5
x = -5/5
x = -1
2(-1) + y = 1
-2 + y = 1
y = 1 + 2
y = 3
solution is (-1,3)
Volume of the first aquarium = (12" x 13" x 14") = 2,184 inches³
Volume of the second aquarium = (32" x 34" x 35") = 38,080 inches³
The second aquarium has (38,080 / 2,184) = 17.44 times as much
volume as the first aquarium has.
So it'll take the hose 17.44 times as long to fill the second one
= (17.44) x (2 minutes) = 34.9 minutes.
C) They solve the same number of problems per minute
