We have 6 tents for 18 campers. Each tent holds either 2 or 4 campers. Exactly how many of our tents hold 2?
x = 2person tent then 6-x = 4 person tent
2 *x + 4 (6-x) = 18 persons
2x +24-4x = 18
-2x = -6
x = 3 two person tents
x = 2person tent then 6-x = 4 person tent
2 *x + 4 (6-x) = 18 persons
2x +24-4x = 18
-2x = -6
x = 3 two person tents
