M. Given that the total number of push-ups and pull-ups equals 36,

Let,

  • x = number of push-ups
  • y = number of pull-ups

The first equation that can be formed from this is:

x + y = 36 --> Eqn. 1

Also, if the instructor wants 8 times as many push-ups as pull-ups from the students, we would have the second equation as:

y = 8x  --> Eqn. 2

  • Substitute y = 8x into eqn. 1 to find the value of x

[tex]x + 8x = 36\\\\9x = 36\\\\x = 4[/tex]

Number of push-ups in 1 min = 4

  • Substitute x = 4 into eqn. 2 to find the value of y

[tex]y = 8(4)\\\\y = 32[/tex]

Number of push-ups in 1 min = 32

The solution to the system of linear equations would be (4, 32) which corresponds to the word: TIE.

Therefore, by solving the systems of linear equations given by substitution, the riddle solved is: HE MADE A KNOT IN HIS TAIL AND CALLED IT A PIG'S TIE
