Question

Bacteria is species A and species B are kept in a single test tube, where they are fed two nutrients. Each bacterium of species A requires 2 units of the first nutrient and 3 units of the second nutrient, and each bacterium of species B requires 1 unit of the first nutrient and 4 units of the second nutrient. Each day the test tube is supplied with 10,600 units of the first nutrient and 19,650 units of the second nutrient. How many of each species can coexist in the test tube so that all the nutrients are consumed each day? Set up and solve a system of equations to solve for x and y, and give your answer as an ordered pair (x,y).
