Answer:

weight = 736 kg

Step-by-step explanation:

Let ball be denoted by b and box by x

Given that:

3b + x = 1840kg ----------- eq1

According to given scenario:

each ball is thrice heavy than box So,

b = 3x -------------- eq2

Putting value of b in eq1

3 (3x) + x = 1840 kg

9x + x = 1840 kg

10x = 1840 kg

Dividing both sides by 10

x = 184 kg

Now finding weight of betal ball

Putting value of x in eq 2

b = 3 (184)

b = 552 kg

So the weight of one ball and box is:

weight = ball + box

weight = 552kg + 184 kg

weight = 736 kg

i hope it will help you!

if you subtract 1/2 from a number and multiply the result by 1/2 you get 1/8. what is the number?? (pls provide steps)
Bas_tet [7]

Answer:

Number\  is\  \frac{3}{4}

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be x

Subtract 1/2 from x = (x - 1/2)

Multiply 1/2 to the result = 1/2(x - 1/2)

The result is 1/8

That is,

            \frac{1}{2}( x - \frac{1}{2}) = \frac{1}{8}\\\\( x - \frac{1}{2}) = \frac{1}{8}\times \frac{2}{1}\\\\(x-\frac{1}{2}) = \frac{1}{4}\\\\x = \frac{1}{4} + \frac{1}{2}\\\\x = \frac{3}{4}
