Answer:

The train A weighs 137 tons and train B weighs 60 tons.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

There are two trains.

Train A and Train B.

Let x tons be the weight of train A and y tons be the weight of train B.

Total weight = 197 tons.

Thus, we can write the equation:

x + y = 197

Train A is heavier than train B.

The difference of their weights is 77 tons.

Thus, we can write the equation:

x-y=77

Solving the two equations, we get,

2x = 274\\\Rightarrow x = 137\\\Rightarrow y = 197-137 = 60

Thus, the train A weighs 137 tons and train B weighs 60 tons.

Solve and check 8-(6-8x) =4x+4

Greetings!

"Solve and check 8-(6-8x)=4x+4"...

Solve for x<span>:
</span>8-(6-8x)=4x+4
Remove the Parenthesis.
8-6-8x=4x+4
Simplify.
2-8x=4x+4
Add -4 to both sides.
(2-8x)+(-4)=(4x+4)+(-4)
Simplify.
-2-8x=4x
Add 8x to both sides.
(-2-8x)+8x=(4x)+8x
Simplify.
-2=12x
Divide both sides by 12.
(-2)/12=(12x)/12
Simplify.
-0.166666667=x

The answer is: <em>x=-0.166666667

</em>Hope this helps.

A total of 26 bills are in a cash box. Some of the bills are one-dollar bills, and the rest are five-dollar bills. The total amo
kobusy [5.1K]

Answer:

Number of 1 $ bill = 20

Number of 5 $ bill = 6

Explanation:

 Let p represent number of one dollar bolls and q represent number of five bills.

A total of 26 bills are in a cash box.

      p + q = 26    ------------------------- Equation 1

The total amount of cash in the box is $50

      p + 5q = 50    ------------------------- Equation 2

Equation 2 - Equation 1,

        p + 5q - p -q = 50 - 26

        4q = 24

          q = 6

Substituting in equation 1.

         p + 6 = 26

         p = 20

Number of 1 $ bill = 20

Number of 5 $ bill = 6

I think it's C, because first you multiply all the sides which is 112 then multiply by 3 and the answer it's 336 if I'm correct.

Write the following series in sigma notation.<br> 7 + 16 + 25 +34 +43 +52 + 61
Solnce55 [7]

The series 7 + 16 + 25 +34 +43 +52 + 61 is an illusration of arithmetic series

The sigma notation of the series is: \sum\limits^7_{n=1} {9n - 2}

<h3>How to write the series in sigma notation?</h3>

The series is given as:

7 + 16 + 25 +34 +43 +52 + 61

The above series is an arithmetic series, with the following parameters

  • First term, a = 7
  • Common difference, d = 9
  • Number of terms, n = 7

Start by calculating the nth term using:

a(n) = a + (n - 1) * d

This gives

a(n) = 7 + (n - 1) * 9

Evaluate the product

a(n) = 7  - 9 + 9n

Evaluate the difference

a(n) = 9n - 2

So, the sigma notation is:

\sum\limits^7_{n=1} {9n - 2}
