A packed box that is being shipped will be weighed in order to calculate the correct postage needed. The total weight of a packe

d box will be the combined weight of the empty box and the product that is placed in the box. Jasmine is currently packing medium-sized boxes. Before packing her first box, Jasmine measured the weight of the empty medium-sized box to be 0.88 pounds. After packing the box, Jasmine measured the total weight of the box to be 7.24 pounds.
Complete the following equation so that it can be used to find the weight, w, of the product inside the first box that Jasmine packed, and then find the weight of the product.

0.88 pounds + w pounds = 7.24 pounds



The weight of the product inside the first box is
pounds ____?

Answer: 6.36lb

Step-by-step explanation:

Step-by-step explanation:

Total Weight of the package = weight of product + weight of box

Weight of empty box =0.88lb

Total weight of the box is =7.24lb

Let Weight of product inside box=w

Let wet of empty box =y

Total weight = F

Then,

F=y+w

Since F=7.24lb. y=0.88

Then, w=F-y

w=7.24-0.88

w=6.36lb

The weight of the product is 6.36lb

hope this helps :)

To find the area of the full shape, we can find the areas of individual smaller shapes and add them together. Lets break this up into a rectangle and a triangle.


The rectangle is easy to calculate as we already have its measurements. The area of a rectangle is h*w=A.

25*36=A

900=A


Next the triangle, and we need to do some logic work with the measurements to find the necessary measurements to take the area.


We know the base of the triangle is some part of 36 feet. We also know from the image that the part of the 36 that is not part of the base of the triangle is 12. Therefore, the base of the triangle is 36 - 12 = 24.


Now we need the height of the triangle. We know the height of the triangle is some part of 39, and the part that is not part of the triangle is 25. Therefore, the height of the triangle is 39 - 25 = 14.


We now have the height and base of the triangle and can find its area. The area of a triangle is 0.5wh=A.

0.5(24)(14)=A

168=A


Finally, we just need to add the two results together to find the total area.

168 + 900 = A

1068 = A


The total area of the shape is 1068.

If we take 771 to be the 100%, and increase it by 98%, thus 100% + 98% = 198.

now, if 771 is the 100%, what is the 198%?

\bf \begin{array}{ccll}
amount&\%\\
\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}&\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}\\
771&100\\
a&198
\end{array}\implies \cfrac{771}{a}=\cfrac{100}{198}\implies \cfrac{771\cdot 198}{100}=a
