Question

You're a manager in a company that produces rocket ships. Machine A and Machine B both produce cockpits and propulsion sy stems. Machine A ran for 22 hours and produced 3 cockpits and 5 propulsion systems. Machine B ran for 44 hours and produc ed 6 cockpits and 10 propulsion systems. Assume both machines produce cockpits at the same rate and both produce propuls ion systems at the same rate. Can we use a system of linear equations in two variables to solve for a unique amount of time th at it takes each machine to produce a cockpit and to produce a propulsion system? Choose 1 answer: Yes; it takes Machine A a nd Machine B 4 hours to buduce a cockpit and 2 hours to produce a propulsion system. B Yes, it takes Machine A and Machine B 2 hours to produce a cockpit and 4 hours to produce a propulsion system. No: the system has many solutions. No, the syste m has no solution.
