x equals 4 and y equals 5 . so the formula would be 5x+12y=80 and if we need 4 of the small boxes we sub x for 4 and we get 5(4) =20. Next, 80 minus 20 is 60, and the equation would now be 12y=60. we now divide both sides by 12 and we get left with y=5. 5x + 12y = 80 5(4) + 12(5)=80 20+60=80. That is all. I hope that doesn't sound confusing
3 Tons = 6000 pounds
300 is 5% of 6000 so the answer is 5% :)
Given:
Atul has 
lb of candy.
Jose has 
lb of candy.
Maria has 
lb less than Jose.
To find:
How many more pounds of candy does Atul have than Maria?

lb
Maria has = 
lb
Difference between the candies Atul and Maria have.
Difference = 
lb
Difference = 
lb
Difference = 
lb
Therefore, Atul have lb of candy more than Maria.
Answer:
Begin by factoring 2 out of 2x^2 - 2x - 12 equals 0:
2(x^2 - x - 6) = 0
2(x - 3)(x + 2) = 0. 2 is never zero, but x-3 and x+2 can each be set = to 0:
This results in x = 3 and x = -2. The equation is true for these two x-values.
Hope this helped :3
