Answer:

The Large Box Weighs 18 kg, and the small box weighs 6.5 kg

Step-by-step explanation:

Let a= the weight in kg of a large box

Let b= the weight in kg of a small box

Multiply both sides of (1)  by 4 and subtract (2) from (1)

1. 20a+8b=412

2. -3a-8b= -106

17a=306

a=18

and

5*8+2b=103

90+2b=103

2b=13

b=6.5

Can someone help, please?

You have to first mess around with the first shape, ABCD, and split that into a rectangle and a right triangle. once you do that, it's pretty painstaking, but simple.

if you look at it you can tell that EFGH is just half the size, but the same ratios and everything.

So, you would just take every perimeter measurement from ABCD, and divide it by two and then sum them together.

2.5 + 1.5 + 4.0 + 2.0 = 10

one morning, the temperature was 5 degrees below zero (F). By noon the temperature rose 20 degrees F and then dropped 8 degrees
Vanyuwa [196]

Answer:

7 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

The temperature starts at -5. It rises 20 degrees so that means it is now 15 degrees. It decreased 8 degrees so now it is 7 degrees.

The main thing you are doing is adding and subtracting
