Given that an empty box weighs 2 and 1/4 pounds.

Weight of the fruit is 16 and 2/3 pounds.

Weight of filled box means total weight of box and the fruit.

So we will add both values.

2 and 1/4 pounds+ 16 and 2/3 pounds

= 2 + 1/4 + 16 + 2/3 pounds

= 2 + 16 + 1/4 + 2/3 pounds

= 18 + 1/4 + 2/3 pounds

= 18 + \frac{1}{4}+\frac{2}{3} \; pounds

= 18 + \frac{1*3}{4*3}+\frac{2*4}{3*4} \; pounds

= 18 + \frac{3}{12}+\frac{8}{12} \; pounds

= 18 + \frac{3+8}{12} \; pounds

= 18 + \frac{11}{12} \; pounds

Hence final answer is 18 and 11/12 pounds.

The table shows how much money Edguardo earns as a golf coach. He charges a flat fee of $38, plus $22 per hour. Complete the tab
Vesnalui [34]
Let's re-read the statement and question, and then break it down.
He charges a flat fee of $38, plus $22 per hour.
A flat fee of $38 is only a one-time pay, and will never be paid for again.
This means if after two hours, we only add $38 once overall, never more.
Every hour that goes by, he earns $22 each hour.
Now that we've broken this down, we can make an equation.
Let's do 1 hour.
1(22) + 38 = 22 + 38, = 60.
For 1 hour he earns $60.
Let's do 2 hours.
2(22) + 38 = 44 + 38, = 82.
For 2 hours he earns $82.
Let's do 3 hours.
3(22) + 38 = 66 + 38, = 104.
For 3 hours he earns $104.
Let's do 4 hours.
4(22) + 38 = 88 + 38, = 126.
For 4 hours he earns $126.
This is a pattern.
Now let's do 8 hours, which is the main question, "How much does he make in 8 hours?".
8(22) + 38 = 176 + 38, = 214.
For 8 hours he earns $214.
I hope this helps!
