2. Jamar and Scout are having a candle wax drinking competition! Jamar has already downed 14 oz. of candle wax and can drink it at a rate of 3 oz. of candle wax per minute and Scott has only downed 8 ox. of candle wax so far but can drink it at the faster rate of 5 oz. per minute.
Write a system of equations to represent the amount of wax ingested, w, in the terms of the minutes passed, m, for Jamar and Scott.
