In order to solve this problem, you need to know how to find averages. You do this by adding all the weights then dividing it by how many packages you have:

10 packages weighing 7.4 lbs.
12 packages weighing 8.2 lbs.
6 packages weighing 8.7 lbs

10+12+6=28 total packages

10(7.4)+12(8.2)+6(8.7)
=74+98.4+52.2
=224.6 total lbs.

Avg. = total lbs / total packages
Avg. = 224.6/28

Avg. = 8.02 lbs.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

average weight can be find as;

average=sum of quantity/no. of quantity

or sum=avg*no. of quantity.

now,

first shipment has total 7.4*10= 74 pound

second shipment has total 12*8.2=98.4

third shipment has total 6*8.7=52.2

now calculating the average of all three we get.

avg=(74+98.2+52.2)/3=74.7

Which is a solution to (x − 2)(x + 10) = 13?

Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

You'll need to expand <span>(x − 2)(x + 10) first,

</span><span>(x − 2)(x + 10) = 13
</span> $x^2+8 x-20=13$
$x^2+8 x+16=49$
$(x+4)^2=49$
$x+4= \pm 7$
$x=3 , x=-11$

A washer and dryer cost $600 combined. The cost of the washer is three times the cost of the dryer

Sveta_85 [38]

First, assign two variables to the prices of the two appliances.
'w' will represent the price of a washer, and 'd' will represent the price of a dryer.

Because "the washer is three times the cost of the dryer," we can form this equation:
w = 3d
On top of that, we know the washer and dryer add up to 600, making another equation.
w + d = 600

Because we know the value of 'w,' we can input that into the equation 'w + d = 600'
(3d) + d = 600
Simplify:
4d = 600
d = 150

Since the washer is three times the price of the dryer:
w = 3(150) = 450

The dryer costs $150, and the washer costs $450.
