Question

if one bucket + 5 jars equal one tub and three buckets plus two jars equal to tubs how many jars are there equal to one tub​

Answer 1

Simplify 4y + 7x = 2t and there you go that's your answer☺

Explanation:

Bucket = y

Jars = x

Tubs = t

y + 5x = t

3y + 2x = t

Answer 2

Number of jars in one tub is:

13

Explanation:

Let b denote the buckets, j denotes the jars and t denotes the tubs

One bucket + 5 jars equal one tub

b+5j=t ----------------(1)

Three buckets plus two jars equal two tubs

3b+2j=2t ------------------(2)

equation (1)×3- equation (2)

3(b+5j)-(3b+2j)= 3t-2t

3b+15j-3b-2j= t

13j= t

Hence, Number of jars in one tub is:

13
