Answer:

no of 5 kg disks is 3, and no of 2 kg disks is (10-3) i.e. 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the no of 2kg disks be a.

Let no of 5 kg disks be b.

2a+5b=29

a+b=10

Using substitution, we have

2(10-b) + 5b=29

20-2b+5b=29

20+3b=29

3b=9

b=3

So no of 5 kg disks is 3, and no of 2 kg disks is (10-3) i.e. 7

What is the length of BD?
Ket [755]

Answer: BD = 9 units

Step-by-step explanation:

ABQ and CDQ are congruent triangles. That means their angle measures are the same but their lengths may be proportional.

19.2 / 32 = 0.6

15 * 0.6 = 9

So the length of side BD is 9 units.

Murljashka [212]
Any multipule of 5 ends with either a 0 or a 5

so we see that ther are no 0's in the list so it must end with 5

so the other 2 digits can be any number
wait, less than 600
so the first digit can be 1 or 3


some possible numbers are

135
175
195
315
375
395

those are the possible numbers
