11 tons, 1,900 lbs.  (or you could say 23,900 lbs, it's the same)

1 ton equals 2000 lbs.
15 tons 100 lbs = 30,100 lbs
3 tons 200 lbs = 6,200 lbs.
30,100 - 6,200 = 23,900

<h2>Answer:</h2>

The weight of apples is 11.95 tons.

Step-by-step explanation:

The weight of the truck with load = 15 tons 100 pounds

The weight of the truck without load = 3 tons 200 pounds

We will convert all the values in tons.

1 pound = 0.0005 ton

100 pounds = 100\times0.0005=0.05 tons

So, truck with load weighs 15.05 tons

200 pounds = 0.0005\times200=0.10 tons

So, truck without load weighs 3.10 tons.

Difference in weighs is = 15.05-3.10=11.95 tons

This difference is the weight of apples.

Therefore, the weight of apples is 11.95 tons.

A couple is required by their lender to have a down payment of 20% of the purchase price of the home they want to buy. If the co
Stella [2.4K]

Down payment is 20% of the price of the home. Since the couple saved $35,000, and assuming they will pay the whole money as down payment, the highest priced home they can get is a price whose 20% is $35,000.

We can setup an equation in x (being the price of home) to get the price of the most expensive home they can buy.

<em>Which number (x) , multiplied by 20%, is equal to $35,000?</em>

<em>x(0.2)=35,000\\x=\frac{35,000}{0.2} \\x=175,000</em>

So, the most expensive house they can buy is worth $175,000.
