Respuesta :

Answer: 12, 18

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

The warehouse has 30 storage bins

Suppose there is x and y storage which hod 20 tons and 15 tons respectively.

The capacity of the warehouse is 510 tons

So, we can write

[tex]\Rightarrow x+y=30\quad \ldots(i)\\\\\Rightarrow 20x+15y=510\quad \ldots(ii)\\\text{Solving (i) and (ii)}\\\\x=12,y=18\\\text{Thus, there are 12, 20 tons bins and 18, 15 tons bins.}[/tex]
