Let x be the number of cases of paper towels and y be the number of cases of soap. The system of linear equation that would best represent the given is,
x + y = 10
12x + 15y = 129
The values of x and y are 7 and 3.

Sarah both 7 cases of paper towel.

It is not possible for Sarah to buy exactly 20 bottles because first of all the cases contains only 12 bottles and 20 is not divisible by 12.

The Oregon trail is 2.197 miles long. How long would it take a covered wagon travelling 20 miles a day to complete the trip? Wri

Bess [88]

Answer: It needs 2.4 hours to complete the trip.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Length of Oregon trail = 2.197 miles

Speed at which it travel = 20 miles per day

we need to find the time taken by it ,

As we know that

$Time=\frac{Distance}{Speed}$

$Time=\frac{2.197}{20}\\\\Time=0.10\text{ days}$

So,

it will be changed into hours

$1\text{ day}=24\text{ hours}\\\\0.1\text{ day}=24\times 0.1=2.4\text{ hours}$

so, it needs 2.4 hours to complete the trip.
