3 possible solutions to the equation 2x+y=10 are shown below:
X= 3, Y=4
(3*2+4=10)
X= 1, Y=8
(1*2+8=10)
X=4, Y=2
(4*2+2=10)
Hope this helps! :)
Hence the number of packages of screws in each shipping box is: 469
Hence option (B) is correct.
There is a mathematical formula which relates these quantities, given by:
Using this, we have:

Solve:
x = 3(x - 20 )
Step 1: Simplify Both sides of equation:
x = 3(x - 20 )
x = (3) (x) + (3) ( - 20 ) (Distribute ):
x = 3x + - 60
x = 3x - 60
Step 2: Subtract 3x from both sides:
x - 3x = 3x - 60 - 3x
- 2x = - 60
Step 3: Divide both sides by -2:
- 2x / - 2 = - 60 / - 2
x = 30
Answer: Our Time Traveler is 30 years old.
Hope that helps : )
