Answer:
1015 widgets
Step-by-step explanation:
First investigate how many widgets can machine A produce in 1 hour:
If it produces 435 in 3 hours, then it will produce one third of that in one hour:
In ONE (1) hour
widgets
Therefore in seven (7) hours it will produce seven times the amount it does in one hour, that is:
widgets
Look at the picture.
We have the equation (1) 12x + 4y = 40.
We know, the sum of the acute angles in a right triangle is 90°.
Therefore we have the equation (2) (12x + 4y) + (17x - y) = 90
Substitute (1) to (2):
40 + 17x - y = 90 <em>subtract 40 from both sides</em>
17x - y = 50 (3)
We have the system of equations:

Substitute the value of x to (3)

Answer: x = 3 and y = 1.
