Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x and y represent the weights of the large and small boxes, respectively. The problem statement gives rise to the system of equations ...
x + y = 85 . . . . . combined weight of a large and small box
70x +50y = 5350 . . . . combined weight of 70 large and 50 small boxes
We can subtract 50 times the first equation from the second to find the weight of a large box.
(70x +50y) -50(x +y) = (5350) -50(85)
20x = 1100 . . . . simplify
x = 55 . . . . . . . divide by 20
Using this in the first equation, we can find the weight of a small box.
55 +y = 85
y = 30 . . . . . . . subtract 55
A large box weighs 55 pounds; a small box weighs 30 pounds.
Answer:
-26 + 4/5d
Step-by-step explanation:
-2/5 ( 15 - 2d + 50)
= -2/5 ( 65 - 2d)
= -2/5 * 65 - (-2/5) * 2d
= -26 - (-4/5d)
= -26 + 4/5d

Answer:
(k = y/x) which is the constant ratio between two proportional quantities y/x denoted by the symbol k which may be a positive rational number. The x value is directly proportional to the y value such as in the equation y = kx.
Step-by-step explanation:
the meaning of it means constant of proportionality
