Answer:
- large: 40 lbs
- small: 20 lbs
Step-by-step explanation:
A system of equations can be written for the weights of the boxes based on the relationships given in the problem statement. One equation will be for the total weight of 1 large and 1 small box; the other will be for the total weight of 70 large and 60 small boxes.
Let L and S represent the weights of Large and Small boxes, respectively. The system of equations is ...
L + S = 60 . . . . . . combined weight is 60 lbs
70L +60S = 4000 . . . . weight of boxes in the truck
__
We can solve this by substituting for s in the second equation.
70L +60(60 -L) = 4000
10L = 400 . . . . . . . . . subtract 3600, simplify
L = 40
S = 60 -L = 20
A large box weighs 40 pounds; a small box weighs 20 pounds.
Answer:
25
Step-by-step explanation:
Theres a ratio of 1:4
Where Jamie has driven 4 times as much as Rhonda
meaning that you can plug in values, 1:4=125
the 4 represents Jamie since she drove farther than rhonda
Rhonda drove 25 miles, and Jamie drove 100 miles
25(4)+25=124
Well if you take 468 and divide it by 18 you get 26 that 26mpg take 754 divide it by 26 and you get 29 and that's how many gallons he used
Answer:
15 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
The area of a circle is pi r^2. We basically have to work backwards. I divided it fist by 3.14 which is the value of pi. I got 225.127, but I rounded it to 225. I found the square root of this which is 15. If we check the work. 15^2 is 225, and 225 times pi is 706.9.
