The total number of employees are 80. I know that because 25 is quarter of 100 and if 20 employees are 25%, all I need to do is 20*4 which is 80. Hope this helped!

Answer:
b = 3 and a = -1
Step-by-step explanation:
You have your given equation:
2a - 3b = -11
a + 3b = 8
You need to find what a and b is.
To find b:
2a - 3b = -11
-2a - 6b = -16
I multiplied a + 3b = 8 by -2. When you multiply a number you have to multiply all of them. You have to choose a number that would cancel out all of a.
So now your equation would look like this when you solve for b:
2a - 3b = -11
-2a - 6b = -16
-------------------
a - 9 = -27 then you divide -9 to -27 which is 3 so b = 3.
To find a:
2a - 3b = -11
a + 3b = 8
I multiplied a + 3b = 8 by -1 and 2a - 3b = -11 by -1 as well.
Your equation will look like this when you solve for a:
-2a + 3b = 11
-1a - 3b = -8
------------------
-3a = 3 then divide -3 to 3 which is -1 so a = -1.
Check to see if you have the correct answer by plugging in the number you got for a and b into the equation and solve.
1. 2(-1) -3(3) = -11
-2 - 9 = -11
2. -1 + 3(3) = 8
-1 + 9 = 8
Answer:
10.31 pounds
Step-by-step explanation:
First, we multiply 1.3 x 2 because he is gaining 1.3 for the next TWO weeks.
1.3 x 2 = 2.6
Now, add 7.71 + 2.6 because that is the weight he started with.
7.71 + 2.6 = 10.31
Her brother will weight 10.31 pounds if he is 7.71 lbs and continues to gain 1.3 pounds each week for two weeks.
X = large boxes and y = small boxes
x + y = 70.....x = 70 - y
60x + 65y = 4300
60(70 - y) + 65y = 4300
4200 - 60y + 65y = 4300
5y = 4300 - 4200
5y = 100
y = 100/5
y = 20 <=== the small boxes weigh 20 lbs
x + y = 70
x + 20 = 70
x = 70 - 20
x = 50 <== and the large boxes weigh 50 lbs
