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

Bogdan [553]

Answer:

Both boats will be 54 miles apart after 3 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that from a point on a river, two boats are driven in opposite directions, one at 7 miles per hour and the other at 11 miles per hour, to determine how many hours they will be 54 miles apart, the following calculation must be performed :

54 / (11 + 7) = X

54/18 = X

3 = X

Therefore, both boats will be 54 miles apart after 3 hours.
