Answer:

Large Box = 18.5

Small Box = 15.75

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = large box and y = small box

5x+6y=187

3x+2y=87

cancel out one equation

(5x+6y=187)•3=15x+18y=561

(3x+2y=87)•-5=15x+10y=435

 15x+18y=561

-15x-10y=-435

–––––––––––

 0+ 8y= 126

  8y÷8 =126÷8

y=15.75

Substitute y into either original equation

3x+2(15.75)=87

3x+ 31.5=87

3x+ 31.5-31.5=87-31.5

3x=55.5

3x÷3=55.5÷3

x=18.5

A triangle has an area of 50cm its base is four times the height what is the height?
babunello [35]
So area=1/2 base times height
50=1/2 base times height
multiply both sides by 2
100=base times height
base=4height
100=4height times height
100=4height^2
divide 4
25=height^2
squarer root
5=height

subisute
base=4(5)
base=20

height=5
