It would cost about $4.86!
First, "boxes of two sizes" means we can assign variables: Let x = number of large boxes y = number of small boxes "There are 115 boxes in all" means x + y = 115 [eq1] Now, the pounds for each kind of box is: (pounds per box)*(number of boxes) So, pounds for large boxes + pounds for small boxes = 4125 pounds "the truck is carrying a total of 4125 pounds in boxes" (50)*(x) + (25)*(y) = 4125 [eq2] It is important to find two equations so we can solve for two variables. Solve for one of the variables in eq1 then replace (substitute) the expression for that variable in eq2. Let's solve for x: x = 115 - y [from eq1] 50(115-y) + 25y = 4125 [from eq2] 5750 - 50y + 25y = 4125 [distribute] 5750 - 25y = 4125 -25y = -1625 y = 65 [divide both sides by (-25)] There are 65 small boxes. Put that value into either equation (now, which is easier?) to solve for x: x = 115 - y x = 115 - 65 x = 50 There are 50 large boxes.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x) = 1.8x is a linear function and does not model the growth of bacteria. Perhaps you meant f(x) = 1.8^x, which is an exponential function whose initial value is 1. Please ensure that you have copied down this problem exactly as it was presented.
Answer:
Radius = 504units
Step-by-step explanation:
Angle = 10°
Length of arc = 28π units
L = ∅/360 × 2πr
28π = 10/360 × 2πr
28π = 1/36 × 2πr
2πr = 28π × 36
π cancelled off.......
2r = 28 × 36
r = (28 × 36)/2
r = 28 × 18
r = 504units
