Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
4 cups of tea per minute.......lunch lasts 2 hrs.....there are 120 minutes in 2 hrs...so in 2 hrs, there will be (4 * 120) = 480 cups

480 / 16 = 30 gallons <==
x+y=4...........eq1
5x-y=1............eq2...
Answer: 2.5
Step-by-step explanation: subtract 2x from both sides and get 4x-2=8 so then add 2 on both sides to get 4x=10 and last step is to divide both sides by 4 which wild get you x=2.5
