x + 2x = 27

3x = 27

27/3 = 9

x=9

2*9 = 18

18+9 =27

 so one container is 9 gallons and the second container is 18 gallons

Kayla wants to plant a garden that contains only tomatoes and squash. She only has enough space to plant 40 vegetables, and she
frutty [35]

Solving a system of equations, we see that she can plant 20 tomatoes and 20 squashes.

<h3>How many tomatoes and how many squash can Kayla plant?</h3>

Let's define the variables:

  • t = number of tomatoes.
  • s = number of squaches.

The space is enough for 40 plants, then:

t + s = 40

And we know that she has a total of $80 to spend (we assume that she spends it all)

t*$1 + s*$3 = $80

Then our system of equations:

t + s = 40

t*$1 + s*$3 = $80

To solve this, we can isolate one of the variables in the first equation, for e xample if we isolate t, we get:

t = 40  - s

Now we can replace that in the other equation:

(40 - s)*$1 + s*$3 = $80

Now we can solve that for s:

$40 - s*$1 + s*$3 = $80

s*$2 = $40

s = $40/$2 = 20

Then she will buy 20 units of squash, and the other 20 plants will be tomatoes.

The equation would be 8s = 296, then we can divide 296 by 8 which gives us 37. which means there were 37 students in the club, we simply add the 5 students left now and are answer is: 42.
42 students were in the club. hope i was of use to you!
