Translate to a system of equations but do not solve A nontoxic floor wax can be made from lemon juice and food grade linseed oil. The amount of oil should be twice the amount of lemon juice. How much of each ingredient is needed to make 42 ounces of floor wax?
Let x represent the number of ounces of lemon juice and y the number of ounces of linseed oil.
Complete the system of equations
x+y=

The system of equations is:

x+y = 42

y = 2x

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of ounces of lemon juice.

Let y represent the number of ounces of linseed oil.

A total of 42 ounces of floor wax is to be made, so:

x+y = 42

The amount of oil should be twice the amount of lemon juice. So:

y = 2x

so the system of equations is obtained.

this is not the answer this is just a question. is this middle school math?
