x+y=1250

Explanation:

Here we have , Bronson is an action and horror movie junkie. He started a movie review vlog and needs to keep up with his movie viewing at a high pace. It has been a total of 50 weeks since he has stated his vlog and he has watched 1250 movies. He has watched twice as many horror movies a action movies. We need to Write two equations that can model this situation.​ Let's find out:

Let Bronson watched x action movies and y horror movies , than according to question horror movies he watched is twice that of action movies i.e.


y=2x ........(1)

Now , he has watched 1250 movies i.e.


x+y=1250 .......(2)


x+2x=1250


3x=1250

Therefore , two equations which can model this situation is :
y=2x and
