A fruit company delivers its fruit in two types of boxes: large and small. Delivery of 8 large boxes and 4 small boxes has a total weight of 173 kilograms. Delivery of 3 large boxes and 2 small boxes has a total weight of 68 kilograms. How much does each type of box weigh?

Weight of each large Box: ?
Weight of each Small Box: ?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

x = 18.5 (large) , y = 6.25 (small)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's start by assigning variables to each type of box.

The large box we will call "x"

The small box we will call "y"

We know that 8x + 4y = 173 (kilograms)

And 3x + 2y = 68 (kilograms)

Since we set up a system of equations, we can now use elimination, by multiplying the entire bottom equation by -2, to get rid of the "y" variable.

8x + 4y = 173

3x(-2) + 2y(-2) = 68(-2)

-6x + -4y = -136  (side note: notice how the "y"'s would cancel each other out because -4y + 4y equals 0)

Add equations together:

2x = 37

x= 18.5

Now that we have x, just substitute it into any of the equations to get y.

You will see that y = 6.25

Answer:

To get the discount for the 5 pound bag of apples, we must first note the following:

The original price of the apples, which in this case it is 2.99

Also we must note the sale price for the apples which is 1.59

to get the discount for apples we must then create an equation based on the above information,

Discount for A= original price -sale price

Discount for A=2.99-1.59

Discount for A=1.40

Part 1 Answer is 1.40 which is the discount for apples at Handy Dandy Grocery.

Part 2

To get the discount for oranges we follow the same steps.

Discount for R= Original price for R -sale price for R

Discount for R=3.99-2.59

Discount for R=1.40

In conclusion, for both part one and part two we can derive a formula based on the apples and orange and say discount in both cases is arrived by the following:

D=Op-Sp. ( d= discount, Or= original price, Sp= sale price.)

According to the information in the table, it can be inferred that the state with the least area is Mississippi, with an area of 61.14 square miles.

How to read the table?

The table shows the population density of some states in which the number of people and the area of that state are mentioned.

Based on this information, it can be inferred that the state with the fewest number of miles is the one with the smallest area. So Mississippi is the one with the least area.

On the other hand, the one with the largest area would be Indiana which is 186.32 square miles in area.

find the solution of y=x+3 and y=2x+6

Answers

Answer:

x = 3 and y = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the solution where you have two equations is called a System of Equations.

What you do is you notice there are two equations and the let both equations equal each other. We can do this because both equations start with a y. These "y" work like puzzles and you can connect the "x+3" and "2x + 6" together. Then solve for it. Here's what i mean,

y = x+3

y = 2x+6

Now connecting them,

x+3 = 2x+6

Subtract x from both sides

3 = x + 6

Subtract 6 from both sides,

x = -3

Now solve for y,

y = -3 + 3 = 0

So our solution is x = 3 and y = 0.

Answer:

  (x, y) = (-3, 0)

Step-by-step explanation:

Substitution or elimination work well for solving this system of equations.

__

Elimination

Subtract the first equation from the second.

  (y) -(y) = (2x +6) -(x +3)

  0 = x +3

  -3 = x . . . . . . . subtract 3

  y = (-3) +3 = 0 . . . . use the first equation to find y

  (x, y) = (-3, 0)

__

Substitution

Use the second equation to substitute for y in the first.

  2x +6 = x +3

  x = -3 . . . . . . . . . subtract x+6 from both sides

  y = (-3) +3 = 0 . . . . find y using the first equation

  (x, y) = (-3, 0)

The population of Sheffield is 690,000 to the nearest thousand and the population of Nottingham is 730,000 to the nearest 1000.
Calculate the upper and lower bounds for the difference in population between Sheffield and Nottingham.

Please answer with clear instructions so that i can apply this to other questions

Answers

Answers:

lower bound = 39001

upper bound = 40999

========================================================

Explanation:

You'll have to think backwards to find what values round to 690,000 when rounding to the nearest thousand.

It turns out that if x is on the interval [tex]689,500 \le x \le 690,499[/tex], then x will round to 690,000 when rounding to the nearest thousand. The x refers to the population of Sheffield, so it's some integer in that range.

Through similar logic, if y is on the interval [tex]729,500\le y \le 730,499[/tex] then it will round to 730,000 when rounding to the nearest thousand. This represents the population of Nottingham.

-------------------

Now let's say we go for the smallest possible value of x (689500) and the largest possible value of y (730499). This guarantees the two populations are the most spread out or distant from one another. Subtract those two values:

730,499 - 689,500 = 40,999

This is the largest difference possible of the two populations. It represents the upper bound, i.e. it's the ceiling.

---------------------

On the other hand, let's now say x is as big as possible (690499) and y will be as small as possible (729500). Subtract those values:

729,500 - 690,499 = 39,001

This is the lower bound. It's the smallest the difference can be. It's considered the floor.

----------------------

Let d be the difference in the populations. In other words, d = y-x

We found that the lower bound was 39,001 and the upper bound was 40,999

Meaning that

[tex]39,001 \le y-x \le 40,999[/tex]

or

[tex]39,001 \le d \le 40,999[/tex]

Solve algebraically for x: -2/3(x+12)+2/3x=-5/4x+2 pls explain​

Answers

Answer:

x = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation:

[tex]\dfrac{-2}{3} (x+12)+\dfrac{2x}{3} =\dfrac{-5x}{4} +2[/tex]

Start out by simplifying the distributive property on the left hand side.

[tex]\implies \dfrac{-2x}{3} + \dfrac{(-24)}{3} +\dfrac{2x}{3} =\dfrac{-5x}{4} +2[/tex]

Combine like terms on the left hand side.

[tex]\implies x\huge\text{(}\dfrac{-2}{3} + \dfrac{2}{3}\huge\text{)}+ \dfrac{(-24)}{3} =\dfrac{-5x}{4} +2[/tex]

Simplify the left hand side.

[tex]\implies x\huge\text{(}0\huge\text{)}+ \dfrac{(-24)}{3} =\dfrac{-5x}{4} +2[/tex]

[tex]\implies x\huge\text{(}0\huge\text{)} - 8 =\dfrac{-5x}{4} +2[/tex]

[tex]\implies0- 8 =\dfrac{-5x}{4} +2[/tex]

[tex]\implies-8 =\dfrac{-5x}{4} +2[/tex]

Subtract 2 both sides.

[tex]\implies-8 -2 =\dfrac{-5x}{4} +2 - 2[/tex]

[tex]\implies-10 =\dfrac{-5x}{4}[/tex]

Use cross multiplication.

[tex]\implies-10 \times 4 =-5x[/tex]

[tex]\implies-40 =-5x[/tex]

Divide -5 both sides.

[tex]\implies \dfrac{-40}{-5} =\dfrac{-5x}{-5}[/tex]

[tex]\implies 8=x[/tex]

Thus, the value of x is 8.

Answer:

x = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation:

[tex]-\dfrac23(x+12)+\dfrac23x=-\dfrac54x+2[/tex]

Multiply both sides by 3:

[tex]\implies -2(x+12)+2x=-\dfrac{15}{4}x+6[/tex]

Multiply both sides by 4:

[tex]\implies -8(x+12)+8x=-15x+24[/tex]

Expand brackets:

[tex]\implies -8x-96+8x=-15x+24[/tex]

Combine like terms:

[tex]\implies -96=-15x+24[/tex]

Add 15x to both sides:

[tex]\implies 15x-96=24[/tex]

Add 96 to both sides:

[tex]\implies 15x=120[/tex]

Divide both sides by 15:

[tex]\implies x=8[/tex]
