Answer:
<u>The two numbers are 23 and 56</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's say the two numbers are A and B.
We are told:
1) A+B=79
2) 3A+5B=283
Let's take the first expression and solve for A:
A+B=79
A=79-B
Now use this value of A in the second expression:
3A+5B=283
3(79-B)+5B=283
237-3B+5B=283
2B = 46
B = 23
Since B=23, we know from 1) that
A+B=79
A+23=79
A = 56
<u>CHECK:</u>
Does A+B=79?
56+23 = 79? <u>YES</u>
Does 3A+5B=283?
3(56)+5(23)=283
168 + 115 = 283? <u>YES</u>

<em>We will assume the tent is in the shape of a triangular prism.</em>
The volume of a triangular prism can be found with the following formula, where 
is the width at the base, 
is the height, and 
is the length.
Substitute in the known values.
Simplify — use multiplication.
Simplify — use division.
The volume — or in this case, the amount of living space — is 
.
Answer:
3
Step-by-step explanation:
The assumed frequency of defects is 2/16.
When we apply this rate to 24, (2/16)*24, we get 3.
Therefore, we can assume around 3 defective boxes tomorrow.
