Question: Set up appropriate systems of two linear equations in two unknowns and then solve the systems by determinants. All numbers are accurate to at least

Set up appropriate systems of two linear equations in two unknowns and then solve the systems by determinants. All numbers are accurate to at least two significant digits.

Two types of electromechanical carburetors are being assembled and tested. Each of the first type requires 15 min of assembly time and 2 min of testing time. Each of the second type requires 12 min of assembly time and 3 min of testing time. If 222 min of assembly time and 45 min of testing time are available, how many of each type can be assembled and tested, if all the time is used?
