A paper company needs to ship paper to a large printing business. The paper will be shipped in small boxes and large boxes. Each

small box of paper weighs 50 pounds and each large box of paper weighs 80 pounds. There were 4 more large boxes shipped than small boxes and the total weight of all boxes was 1750 pounds. Write a system of equations that could be used to determine the number of small boxes shipped and the number of large boxes shipped. Define the variables that you use to write the system.

50x+80y=1750 and y = x+4 can be used to determine the number of small boxes and large boxes of paper shipped where x represent the number of small boxes of paper and y represent the number of large boxes of paper.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Weight of small box of paper = 50 pounds

Weight of large box of paper = 80 pounds

Total weight of boxes = 1750 pounds

Let,

x represent the number of small boxes of papers.

y represent the number of large boxes of papers.

According to given statement;

50x+80y=1750

y = x+4  

50x+80y=1750 and y = x+4 can be used to determine the number of small boxes and large boxes of paper shipped where x represent the number of small boxes of paper and y represent the number of large boxes of paper.

The height of a cone is twice the radius of its base.
fredd [130]

Answer: 2/3πx³

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the radius of the cone be represented by x.

Since the height of the cone is twice the radius of its base, the height will be: = 2x

Volume of a cone = 1/3πr²h

where,

r = x

h = 2x

Volume of a cone = 1/3πr²h

= 1/3 × π × x² × 2x

= 1/3 × π × x² × 2x

= 1/3 × π × 2x³

= 2/3πx³

Therefore, the correct answer is 2/3πx³.

FIND THE SUM OF 20 TERMS OF THE ARITHMETIC SERIES IN WHICH 3rd TERM IS 7 AND 7th TERM IS 2 MORE THAN THREE TIMES ITS 3rd TERM
algol13

Answer:

740

Step-by-step explanation:

The n th term of an arithmetic series is

a_{n} = a₁ + (n - 1)d

where a₁ is the first term and d the common difference

Given a₃ = 7 and a₇ = (3 × 7) + 2 = 21 + 2 = 23 , then

a₁ + 2d = 7 → (1)

a₁ + 6d = 23 → (2)

Subtract (1) from (2) term by term

4d = 16 ( divide both sides by 4 )

d = 4

Substitute d = 4 into (1)

a₁ + 2(4) = 7

a₁ + 8 = 7 ( subtract 8 from both sides )

a₁ = - 1

The sum to n terms of an arithmetic series is

S_{n} = \frac{n}{2} [ 2a₁ + (n - 1)d ] , thus

S_{20} = \frac{20}{2} [ (2 × - 1) + (19 × 4) ]

     = 10(- 2 + 76) = 10 × 74 = 740

If a 50 g bar is 260 calories. How many calories would this 75g King Size bar have?
RSB [31]

Answer:

390 calories

Step-by-step explanation:

Divide 260 and 50, to find how much calories are in 1 gram.

260/50=5.2

1 gram=5.2 calories.

Now multiply 75 with 5.2 to find how many calories are in 75 g.

75 x 5.2=390

<u>Final answer</u>

390 calories
