Let's define the variables:
Let \( m \) represent the number of math problems that Brooklyn solved.
Let \( p \) represent the number of pages that Brooklyn read.
Now, we can form the following system of equations based on the information provided:
-
The number of math problems solved is twice the number of pages read: \[ m = 2p \]
-
The total time spent on math problems and reading is 70 minutes. Since Brooklyn takes 2 minutes per math problem and 3 minutes per page, we can express the total time as: \[ 2m + 3p = 70 \]
Thus, the system of equations is: \[ \begin{align*}
- & \quad m = 2p \
- & \quad 2m + 3p = 70 \end{align*} \]
This system can be used to solve for the number of math problems (\( m \)) and the number of pages read (\( p \)).
