We need to find an expression which will help Sara calculate the total weight of the truck.

By hypothesis, we know that x represents the number of cans in the truck. And each can weigh 14 ounces, so the total weight of the cans in the truck is 14*x = 14x.

Now in the truck, there's a total of 840 cans and bottles combined. And x is the number of cans. So 840 - x is the number of bottles. And since each bottle's weight is 70 ounces, the total weight of the bottles in the truck is 70*(840-x) = 70*840 - 70*x = 58800 - 70x.

Now to find the total weight, we add the weight of the cans to the weight of the bottle: 14x + 58800 - 70x = 58800-56x.

So the equation to find the total weight of the truck is:

58800-56x, in which x represents the number of cans in the truck.

Hope this helps! :)

10x + 3y = 19 y = 2x + 5

sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

x = 1/4

y = 5 2/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given two equations

1. 10x + 3y = 19

2. y = 2x + 5

Substitute 2x + 5 for y in the first equation

We have

10x + 3y = 19

10x + 3(2x + 5) = 19

Expand the bracket

10x + 3 X 2x + 3 X 5 = 19

10x + 6x + 15 = 19

16x + 15 = 19

Subtract 15 from both sides to eliminate 15 on the left

16x + 15 - 15 = 19 - 15

16x = 4

Divide both sides by 16 to isolate x

16x/16 = 4/16

x = 1/4

Now, substitute 1/4 for x in either equation to get y.

Using equation 2 , we have

y = 2x + 5

= 2(1/4) + 5

= 2/4 + 5

LCM of the denominator is 4.

Divide the LCM by the denominators and multiply the results by the numerators. Also, the LCM becomes the denominator of the results

Therefore

= 2 + 20/4

= 22/4

y= 5 2/4

x = 1/4 , y = 5 2/4

Log base 2 power (5x+7) =5

Vsevolod [243]

If we go back to the defenition of logs, we can find this solution quickly.

What you're saying when you say ㏒₂(5x+7) = 5 is that

2⁵ = 5x+7

32 = 5x+7

25 = 5x

x = 5
