Answer:Boys=5,girls =2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let b be the no of boys and g be the no of girls

Therefore

Sam has twice as many brothers as sisters

2g=b-1

b-2g=1--------------1

Amanda has five times as many brothers as sisters

5(g-1)=b

5g-b=5----------------2

using (1) & (2) we get

g=2

b=5

Someone please help me I only have until January 18th to turn this in. Question: Mr Lopez picks up 2 pallets of dog food to deli
miv72 [106K]

Answer:

Mr. Lopez delivers 1.5 tons of dog food to the animal shelter.

Step-by-step explanation:

Mr Lopez picks up 2 pallets of dog food to deliver to the animal shelter. Each pallet contains 40 bags of dog food, and the dog food weighs 37 1/2 pounds pet bag.

The weight of 1 bag of dog food = 37\frac{1}{2}\text{ pounds }

The weight of 40 bags of dog food = 40 \times 37\frac{1}{2} =1500 \text{ pounds }

Each pallet weighs = 1500 pounds

2 pallets weighs = 1500×2=3000 pounds.

We know that 2000 pounds = 1 ton

\frac{3000}{2000} \text{ pounds}=1.5 \text{ tons}

Hence, Mr. Lopez delivers 1.5 tons of dog food to the animal shelter.
