You first have to set up the two equations. Y is equal to the total number of gallons in a tank and x is equal to the number of hours the tanks are filling.
Since the two equations both equal y I can make them equal each other. I then solved for x as you see and got -4.
Once I found my x value I now needed to find my y. You only needed to chose one equation to solve for y, so I decided to do the first one. I plugged in -4 where my x value currently was and solved for y. I got 2.
If you have any questions please comment!! Hope this helps!!
Answer:
(4,1)
Step-by-step explanation:
x+y=5
x- y=3
Add the equations together to eliminate y
x+y=5
x- y=3
--------------------
2x = 8
Divide each side by 2
2x/2 = 8/2
x = 4
Now we can find y
x+y = 5
4+y = 5
Subtract 4 from each side
4+y-4 = 5-4
y =1
Answer:
174879 units
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that The Elmina Wilson Company produces spaghetti sauce.
Fixed costs =1,329,050 $
Selling price per 64 oz=
Variable cost per can = 
Contribution = S-V=Selling price - var cost = 7.60 $
Break even poin in no of units = Fixed cost/Contribution per unit
=
