Answer:

500 plants

Step-by-step explanation:

Total capacity of barrel = 150 L

1 liter = 1000 mL

Total capacity of barrel in mL = 150*1000 mL = 150,000 mL

amount of water given to each plant by Mattie = 300 mL

Let there be x plants

Then, total amount of water given to x plant by Mattie = 300*x mL

We know that full  rain barrel has 150,000 mL

so total amount of water given to x plant by Mattie should be equal to full  rain barrel capacity.

Substituting value of full rain barrel capacity and total amount of water given to x plant  

Mathematically it can be written as

total amount of water given to x plant by Mattie = full rain barrel capacity

300*x mL = 150,000 mL

=> x = 150,000/300 = 500

Thus,  500 plants can she water with a full rain barrel.

Slove the simoltanous equation by using substitution or elimination method 5x-3y=1 3x+2y=1<br>​
xxTIMURxx [149]

<u>By substitution method </u>

5x - 3y =1

3x + 2y = 1

_____o____o____

5x - 3y = 1 \\ 5x = 1  +  3y \\ x =  \frac{1 + 3y}{5}

______o____o_____

3x + 2y = 1 \\ 3( \frac{1 + 3y}{5} ) + 2y = 1 \\  \frac{3 + 9y}{5}  + 2y = 1 \\  \frac{3 +9y + 10y}{5}  = 1 \\  \frac{3 + 19y}{5}  = 1 \\ 3 + 19y = (1)(5) \\ 3 + 19y = 5 \\ 19y = 5 - 3 \\ 19y = 2 \\ y =  \frac{2}{19}

______o_____o____

x =  \frac{1 + 3y}{5}  =  \frac{1 + 3 \frac{2}{19} }{5} \\ x =  \frac{1 +  \frac{6}{19} }{5}  =  \frac{ \frac{19 + 6}{19} }{5}   =  \frac{ \frac{25}{19} }{5}  \\ x =  \frac{25}{19}  \div 5 \\ x =  \frac{25}{19}  \times  \frac{1}{5}  \\ x =  \frac{5}{19}
