For this problem, I think the question is to find the values of x and y. Since there are two unknowns and two equations, this system may be solvable. But let's investigate first if the equations are independent.

y = 4x - 1  ----> eqn 1
12x = 3y + 7 ---> eqn 2

Substituting eqn 1 to eqn 2:
12x = 3(4x - 1) + 7
12x = 12x -3 + 7
12x - 12x = 7 - 3
0 = 4

It turns out that the system is not solvable because x cancels out. That means that the two given equations are dependent with each other.

Does the tallest can always hold the greatest volume? Explain your answer!
djverab [1.8K]

Alrighty, so,  you know how young children often believe that a taller container will have a greater volume than a shorter container? Even after seeing that both containers hold the same amount, some children will still think the taller container holds more. It may take measuring the water a few times before they get it.

<em>If it overflows, the first container is bigger, or is able to hold more water. If all of the water from the first container can be poured into the second container without completely filling it, then the second container holds more water.</em>

The tallest container holds the most liquid. Identical containers can have a different capacity.
