x and y are the packs of organic and inorganic fertilizer, respectively.
pounds of nitrogen added = 2x + 6y = 120
pounds of potassium added = 3x + 2y = 54
eliminate the y terms. subtract the first equation from 3 times the second equation.
9x + 6y = 162
-2x - 6y = -120
------------------
7x = 42
x = 6
y = 18
Answer:
49.4
Step-by-step explanation:
So, 1 Gallon = 3.8 Liters. We need to find how many liters are in 13 gallons.
All we need to do is multiply our 3.8 liters (1 gallon) by 13 to find out how many liters 13 gallons is.
3.8 x 13 = 49.4
Your answer is 49.4.

Answer:
3,131,313
Step-by-step explanation:
Let X represent the number of cases with diabetes in 1973.
An increase of 396% in diabetes cases in 1973 would be;
12.4 million = 396/100 × X
12.4 million = 396X/100
Cross multiply
12.4 million × 100 = 396X
X = [(12.4 million × 100) / 396]
X = 3,131,313
Therefore, the number of diabetes cases in 1973 is 3,131,313 cases
