Dr. Potter provides vaccinations against polio and measles. Each polio vaccination consists of 444 doses, and each measles vaccination consists of 222 doses. Last year, Dr. Potter gave a total of 606060 vaccinations that consisted of a total of 184184184 doses. How many polio vaccinations and how many measles vaccinations did Dr. Potter give last year

37 polio vaccinations and 23 measles vaccination.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of polio vaccination given=x

Let the number of measles vaccination given=y

Dr. Potter gave a total of 60 vaccinations

x+y=60

Since each polio vaccination consists of 4 doses, and each measles vaccination consists of 2 doses. A total of 184 doses was given out.

4x+2y=184

To find the values of x and y, we solve the two equations simultaneously.

x+y=60 (1)

4x+2y=184 (2)

From (1), x=60-y

Substitute x=60-y into equation 2.

4x+2y=184

4 (60-y) + 2y=184

240-4y+2y=184

240-184=4y-2y

56=2y

Divode both sides by 2

y=23

Recall earlier that x=60-y

x=60-23=37

Dr Potter gave 37 polio vaccinations and 23 measles vaccination.
