The average of an electrician's hourly wage and a plumber's hourly wage is $32.00. One day a contractor hires an electrician for
9hr of work and the plumber for 2hr of work and pays a grand total of $219.00. Can you help me find the hourly wage for the electrician and for the plumber? I'm very confused on how to go about solving these types of problems.

Simultaneous Linear Equations could be solved by using several methods such as :
- <em>Elimination Method</em>
- <em>Substitution Method</em>
- <em>Graph Method</em>
If we have two linear equations with 2 variables x and y , then we need to find the value of x and y that satisfying the two equations simultaneously.
Let us tackle the problem!
<em>Let:</em>
<em>Volumes of 2% Solution = x</em>
<em>Volumes of 10% Solution = y</em>
<em>Total Volume = 10 ml</em>
→ <em>Equation 1</em>
<em>The nurse needs to mix 2% solution with 10% solution to get 10 ml of the prescribed 6% solution</em>.
→ <em>Equation 2</em>
<em>Equation 1 - Equation 2:</em>
<em>Volumes of 2% Solution = </em><em>5 ml</em>
<em>Volumes of 10% Solution = </em><em>5 ml</em>
