Which is greater 2000 minutes or 2 1/2 hours ?

To determine which is greater, I divided 2000 minutes by 60 to see how many hours it was worth, which is about 33 hours. 33 is greater than 2 1/2 hours, so 2000 minutes is greater.

ANSWER:
X=3y-2
Also,X=5y+8
Then,when put them in one equation with help of sign of equality.
i.e.3y-2=5y+8
3y-5y=8+2
-2y=10
y=10/-2
y=-5
Then value of x can be obtained from any of the given equations.
X=3y-2
X=3*-5-2
X=-15-2
X=-17
Also we can check the answer by solving the other equation:
X=5y+8
X=5*-5+8
X=-25+8
X=-17
