Answer is 11.5

Total weight of the shipment is 65, and 1 envelope weight 7.5 that’s means
65-7.5= 57.5

As we are looking for each box weight in pounds so you divided 57.5/5 =11.50

Hope this helps!

Initial weight= 65 lbs total


STEP 1
Subtract weight of envelope from total weight

65 - 7.5= 57.5 lbs for 5 boxes


STEP 2
Divide remaining weight equally into 5 parts (5 boxes of equal weight)

57.5 ÷ 5= 11.5 lbs per box


ANSWER: Each box weighs (B) 11.5 pounds.

Hope this helps! :)

PLEASE HELP ME!
sattari [20]

You want to know how long it'll take for the bacteria to grow
to (800/500) = 1.6 times their initial population.

The number of double-times it'll take is 

                         [ log(1.6) / (log(2) ]  =  0.6781 .

The double-time for these particular critters is 12 hours,
so it'll take them

                             0.6781  x  12 hours  =  8.137 hours

                                                                =  8 hours  8.2 minutes .
