S= number of small boxes
l= number of large boxes

equation 1:  s+l=120
equation 2:  15s+45l=3300

solve by elimination, multiply equation 1 by -15.

-15(s+l=120) =  -15s-15l=-1800  add to equation 2.

-15s+15s-15l+45l=-1800+3300  = 30l=1500

30l=1500 , l=50

s+l=120, s+50=120 --> s=70

For the equation 2(4x+10)=8x+k, which value of K will create an equation with infinitely many solutions?
saw5 [17]

Answer:

For given linear equation having infinite many solution the value of k is 20  .

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

The equation is 2 (4 x + 10) = 8 x + k

For infinite many solution , if the variable cancel out to zero then it will have infinite many solutions

<u>So, from given linear equation</u>

i.e 2 (4 x + 10) = 8 x + k

Or, 2 × 4 x + 2 × 10 = 8 x + k

Or, 8 x + 2 × 10 = 8 x + k

Or, 8 x + 20 = 8 x + k

Or, k + (8 x - 8 x) = 20

Or, k + 0 = 20

∴   k = 20

So, The vale of k  = 20

Hence, For given linear equation having infinite many solution the value of k is 20  . Answer

The legs of a right triangle measure
scZoUnD [109]

Answer:

108 in²

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the legs of a right triangle are 12" and 18".

Be cause it is a right triangle (with 90 degrees between the legs), we can arbitrarily assign one of these to be the height and the other value automatically becomes the base.

Let 12" be height and 18" be base

area = 1/2 x height x base

= 1/2 x 12 x 18

= 108 in²
