Answer:

Small box weighs 13.75 kg & large box weighs 15.75 kg

Step-by-step explanation:

We can write 2 simultaneous equation and solve for weight of each box.

<em>Let weight of large box be l and small box be s.</em>

<em />

"<u>3 large boxes and  5 small boxes has a total weight of  116 kilograms</u>":

3l+5s=116

and

"<u>9 large boxes and  7 small boxes has a total weight of  238 kilograms</u>":

9l+7s=238

<em>Now we can solve for l in the 1st equation and put it into 2nd equation and get s:</em>

<em>3l+5s=116\\3l=116-5s\\l=\frac{116-5s}{3}</em>

<em>now,</em>

<em>9l+7s=238\\9(\frac{116-5s}{3})+7s=238\\3(116-5s)+7s=238\\348-15s+7s=238\\348-238=15s-7s\\110=8s\\s=\frac{110}{8}=13.75</em>

<em />

<em>now we plug in 13.75 into s into equation of l to find s:</em>

<em>l=\frac{116-5s}{3}\\l=\frac{116-5(13.75)}{3}\\l=15.75</em>

Effectus [21]

Answer:

I agree with Noah's Method because following PEMDAS you have to do exponents first. 10^3 is 1000 and then you can add the 20. Jada's method is incorrect because you cannot add the two together.

For this question:
10 +  8 = 18 can be rewritten using commutative property as: 8 + 10 = 18
