machines M I and M2 for developing X-ray

films. Machine MI uses 2 units of power

and M2 uses 1.5 units of power per film
developed. The total units of power
supplied to these two machines is 300 units
per day. The hospital plans for developing
180 films each day. Translate the situation
into a system of two linear equations.
