Answer:

<em>A small box weighs 30 lb; a large box weight 60 lb.</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Let L = weight of large box

Let S = weight of small box

"The combined weight of a large box and a small box is 90 pounds."

L + S = 90

"The truck is transporting 70 large boxes and 65 small boxes. If the truck is carrying a total of 6150 pounds in boxes"

L = 90 - S    Equation 1

The truck carries 65 small boxes and 65 large boxes and another 5 large boxes.

65(90) + 5(90 - S) = 6150   Equation 2

We use these two equations (Eq. 1 and Eq. 2) as a system of equations.

L = 90 - S

5850 + 450 - 5S = 6150

6300 - 5S = 6150

-5S = -150

S = 30

L = 90 - S = 90 - 30 = 60

S = 30; L = 60

Please help with any of these, number 14, 16, 18 and 20 !!
kicyunya [14]

Answer:

14: B. 40 C. 40 D. 100

Step-by-step explanation:

a triangle is 180 degrees adding all the angles. The triangle on the top is just a mirror for the bottom and since B and C are the same that equals 80 and when you subtract 80 from 180 you get 100 so that makes D 100.

To double check just add 100+40+40=180
