Let x and y be the numbers;
We have x + 2y = 9 and 2x + y = 21;
Then, x = 9 - 2y;
Finally, 2(9-2y) + y = 21 ;
18 - 4y + y = 21;
18 - 3y = 21;
-3y = 3;
y = - 1;
x = 9 - 2× (-1);
x = 9 + 2 ;
x = 11;

djverab [1.8K]

The question is incomplete. The complete question is :

Justin drinks 1 litter of water during the soccer practice. He drank 2,000 milliliters of water at his game. How many liters of water did he drink during his game and his practice? Explain.

Solution :

It is given that :

During practice, Justine drank = 1 liter of water

During game, Justine drank = 2000 milliliters of water

We know that,

1 liter = 1000 mL

Therefore, during the game, Justine drank :

1000 mL = 1 liter

∴ 2000 mL = 2 liter

So Justine drank 2 liters of water during his soccer game and 1 liter of water during his practice.
