The equation that represents the canned goods order is 24x + 64y = 384, where x = number of minutes spent producing fruit cans, and y = number of minutes producing vegetable cans.

If the vegetable assembly line runs for 3 minutes, how many minutes would the fruit assembly line need to run to complete the order of 384 cans? Explain.

Answer:

8 Minutes

Explanation:

24x+64y=384 y=3 minutes

24x+64930=384

24x+192=384

24x=384-192

24x=192

192/24=8 minutes
