X = -6y - 12
4x + 5y =-39
4x + 5y = -39
-4(-6y - 12) + 5y = -39
-4(-6y) + 4(12) + 5y = -39
24y + 48 + 5y = -39
29y + 48 = -39
29y = -87
y = -3
x = -6y - 12
x = -6(-3) - 12
x = 28 - 12
x = 6
(x, y) = (6, -3)
Answer:
10.8 minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
Given data
We are told that the number of Jugs is 18
Filling the first 3 jugs has taken 5 minutes
let us find the filling rate
Rate= 3/5
Rate= 0.6 Jugs per minute
Hence the rate of filling is 0.6 Jugs per minute
Therefore the time take to fill the remaining 16 jugs is
TIme= Rate*Number of Jugs
TIme= 0.6*18
Time= 10.8 minutes
The answer is 7.
