S= number of small boxes
l= number of large boxes
equation 1: s+l=120
equation 2: 15s+45l=3300
solve by elimination, multiply equation 1 by -15.
-15(s+l=120) = -15s-15l=-1800 add to equation 2.
-15s+15s-15l+45l=-1800+3300 = 30l=1500
30l=1500 , l=50
s+l=120, s+50=120 --> s=70
Answer:
a=
or 
Step-by-step explanation:
Equate the equation to zero
-9a+2=0
-5a-4a+2=0
5a(2a-1)-2(2a-1)=0
Write out the factors
(5a-2)(2a-1)=0
Then equate each factor to zero
5a-2=0 OR 2a-1=0
5a=2 OR 2a=1
a=
OR a= 
a=
or 
70? Is this a trick question?
Answer:
x=59
Step-by-step explanation:
x+12+x+x-9=180
3x+3=180
-3 -3

x=59
Answer:
He made 10.4 batches of chocalate chip cookies.
He made 156 chocalate chip cookies and 96 peanut butter cookies.
Step-by-step explanation:
Sense there's a total of 252 cookies you would subtract the 96 cookies from 252 to get 156 then divide it by 15 to get 10.4 which is how much batches he made of chocalate chip cookies.
Tasty!
