Question 696310: I am having difficulty computing two more possibilities for the equation 15x+7.50y= 360. It comes from a word problem that involves tubes and cooler tubes. So far I have gotten 24 tubes and 0 cooler tubes and 0 tubes and 48 cooler tubes. I made a graph using the points, but I am unable to use the graph to calculate the remaining two possibilities for the problem. Please if you could help me just get two more answers. Thank you very much.

15x+7.50y= 360
---------------
No idea what you mean about the tubes.
30x + 15y = 720
2x + y = 48
y = -2x + 48
Pick any value for x and find y
Use Excel, if you want to make a table.
