    L=lintmorepoplation

    e=ellmore population

    l is 12 times as e

    l=12 times e

    l=12e

    comeined is 9646

    l+e=9646

    remember that l=12e so subsitue 12e for l

    12e+e=9646

    add like terms

    13e=9646

    divide both sdies by 13

    e=742

    linton=12e

    subsitue

    linton=12 (742)

    linton=8904

    linton's population is 8904 peple
