Answer:

  440 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of the total weight to the weight of apples is ...

  (4 + 3 + 4) : 4 = 11/4

So, the total weight will be ...

  total weight = (total weight)/(apple weight) × (apple weight) = (11/4)×(160 lb)

  total weight = 440 lb

_____

<em>Comment on the problem</em>

The problem doesn't say what the ratio is. We have to assume it is the ratio of weights. (It could be the ratios by volume, sugar content, cost, or any of a number of other factors.)

Can someone explain?
natita [175]

Explanation:

<u>Statement 2</u>:

  Angle J is congruent to itself

<u>Reason 2</u>:

  Reflexive property of congruence

__

<u>Statement 3</u>:

  ΔHIJ ~ ΔGHJ

<u>Reason 3</u>:

  SAS similarity theorem

_____

The sides given as proportional (having the same ratio) are corresponding sides in the two triangles. The first pair of sides (HJ, GJ) are named by the first and last letters of the triangle names, so correspond. The second pair of sides (IJ, HJ) are named by the last two letters of the triangle names, so correspond.

The angle between these corresponding sides is the one at the vertex whose name is the point shared by the sides. In the first triangle, the two sides of interest are HJ and IJ, which share the point at J. Thus angle J is the angle between these two sides. In the second triangle, the two sides of interest are GJ and HJ, which share the point at J. Hence angle J is the angle between these two sides, also.

So, we have corresponding sides that are proportional and the angle between them that is congruent (to itself). This allows us to invoke the SAS theorem for triangle similarity.
