FAN AND MEDAL

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 1

substitute 3 for y in the equation and solve for x :)
