A delivery truck is transporting boxes of two sizes: large and small. The large boxes weigh 55 pounds each, and the small boxes

weigh 30 pounds each. There are 110 boxes in all. If the truck is carrying a total of 4800 pounds in boxes, how many of each type of box is it carrying?

Answer:

Number of small boxes is 50 and number of big boxes is 60

Step-by-step explanation:

let the number of small box represent x and the number of big box represent y

Hence total number of boxes = x + y = 110 ......................Eqn1

Total weight of boxes = 30x + 55y = 4800----------------Eqn2

Solving both equations simultaneously

From Eqn1, x = 110-y, substitute it into equation 2

Hence, 4800 = 30(110-y) + 55y

1500 = 25y

y = 60

X = 110 - 60 = 50

Number of small boxes is 50 and number of big boxes is 60

Triangle ABC has a perimeter 22cm AB = 8cm BC =8cm By calculation, deduce whether triangle ABC is a right angle triangle. NEED A
Likurg_2 [28]

Answer:

No ABC is not a triangle

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter = 22 cm

AB = 8 cm ; BC = 8 cm

AC = 22 - ( 8 + 8 ) = 6 cm

But all those sides doesn't follow Pythagorean Theorem(AB^2 + BC^2 = AC^2) ....because 8^2 + 8^2 isn't equal to 6^2 ......

Had it followed the theorem , it could have been a right angle triangle...

Simplify this equation <br> Thanks a lot!!!
den301095 [7]

Answer:

-1

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to simplify the given expression . The given expression is ,

\rm\implies ( 2 \sqrt6 +5)^{2n-1} ( 2\sqrt6 - 5)^{2n-1}

Here we can see that the power of the both exponent is same that is (2n+1) . Recall the property of exponents ,

\bf\implies a^m \times b^m = (ab)^m

Using this property , we have ,

\rm\implies ( 2 \sqrt6 +5)^{2n-1} ( 2\sqrt6 - 5)^{2n-1}

This can be written as ,

\rm\implies\{( 2 \sqrt6 +5) ( 2\sqrt6 - 5)\}^{2n-1}

Simplifying using ( a+b)(a-b) = a² - b² ,

\rm\implies\{( 2 \sqrt6)^2 -5^2 \}^{2n-1}\\\\\rm\implies ( 24 - 25)^{2n-1}

Subtracting the numbers inside the brackets ,

\rm\implies (-1)^{2n - 1 }

Now we know that every odd number is in the form of 2n -1 , where n is any integer. Therefore , the <u>power is odd</u> .

Since the base is (-1) , for even power it is 1 and for odd power it is -1 . Therefore the final answer is ,

\rm\implies\boxed{\quad \red{ -1 }\quad }

<u>Hence </u><u>the</u><u> </u><u>required</u><u> answer</u><u> is</u><u> </u><u>(</u><u>-</u><u>1</u><u>)</u><u> </u><u>.</u>
