Answer:
x = 3
y = 0
Step-by-step explanation:
The method of substitution is when one solves an equation for one of the variables, and then substitutes the expression into the other equation. After doing so, one will solve the other equation for the remaining variable and then backsolve for the first variable.
4x + 2y = 12
x = y + 3
The second equation is already sovled for parameter (x), subttiute this into the other equation,
4(y + 3) + 2y = 12
Distribute,
4y + 12 + 2y = 12
Simplify,
6y + 12 = 12
Inverse operations,
6y + 12 = 12
-12
6y = 0
/6
y = 0
Backsolve for (x), substitute the value of (y) into the equation for (x) and solve,
x = y + 3
x = 0 + 3
x = 3
To solve this problem you need to figure out the volume of the sipping container, and the volume of the tissue box.
39*19.5*19.5=14,829.75
6.5*6.5*6.5=274.63
In order to figure out how many fits you need to divide
14,829.75/274.63=53.99
The maximum number that you can fit is the box is 53.
Hope this helps
