Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let g represent the weight of the g oranges that were put in the crate in pounds.

From the information given,

The weight of the empty crate is 15 pounds. The total weight of the crate when filled with g oranges is 24.5 pounds.

Therefore, the equation that represents the relationship between the weight of the crate and the number of oranges it contains is

g + 15 = 24.5

g = 24.5 - 15

g = 9.5 pounds

The weight of the g oranges is 9.5 pounds

Brian invests £1300 into his bank account.
raketka [301]

Answer:

£1690

Step-by-step explanation:

Amount invested by Brian = £1300

rate of simple interest = 10%

To find money Brian will have after three years

He will have amount invested in bank and interest earned in three years from that amount.

Simple interest for any principal amount p is given by

SI = P*R * T /100

where SI  is simple interest earned

T is time period for which simple interest is earned

R is rate of interest

Substituting value of P , R and T we have

SI = 1300*10* 3 /100 = 390

Therefor interest earned will be £390

Total money with Brian after three years = principal amount invested + interest earned in 3 years

= £1300 + £390 = £1690

Perimeter of rectangle floor is 80 feet. Find the dimention of the floor if the length is four times the width
erik [133]

Answer:

width = 8 ft & length = 32 ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

let the width be x and length be 4x.

we know, Perimeter = 2(l+b)

now,

2(4x + x) = 80

10x = 80

x = 80/10 = 8

x = 8

therefore,

width = x = 8 ft

length = 4x = 4 × 8 = 32 ft.

hope this helps you !
