At the rate of 5% per hour, time to take another 100 to get infected is essentially time to double the infection.
We can use the rule of 72 to get a quick rough estimate
time = 72/5=14.4 hours.

Exact value:
100(1.05)^t = 200
1.05^t=2
take log
t=log(2)/log(1.05)
= 14.21 hours

horrorfan [7]

in the equation as we can say x= 2y-10.

so, substitute x=2y-10 everywhere then the x in 1240 gets cancelled with 2y-10 then solve the remaining you will get 4y-20+3y=1240

7y=1260

y=1260/7

y=180

then substitute the value of y everywhere

2x+3y=1240

2x+3(180)=1240

2x=1240-540

2x=700

x=350

DONE.
