    I need to solve this but don't know where to start?
    2nx70+50x110L=1150
    40Lx110+50x70=1350

    Please confirm that this is what you mean:



    Note that the second equation only has 'L' as an unknown - are you able to solve that equation? Then plug the resulting value for 'L' back into the first equation to solve for 'n.'

    Sorry wrong equation. Should read
    25x x 40y + 50 x 50 =1150
    50x x 50y +25 x 40 -1350

    Two things:

    1. Please don't double post questions. This is the same questuion you asked here: https://www.askmehelpdesk.com/mathem...on-720480.html

    2. As noted in my response to that other question - this equation as you've written it makes no sense.
