An airplane begins a flight with a total of 39.3 gal of fuel stored in two separate wing tanks. During the flight, 25.3% of the fuel in one tank is used, and in the other tank 34.2% of the fuel is used. If the total fuel used is 12.1 gal, the amounts x and y available in each tank before flight can be found by solving the system of equations which is below. x+y=39.3 0.253x+ 0.342y=12.1 Find x and y. X= - y=0 (Round to one decimal place as needed.)
