Florence works in the shipping department of a toy factory that makes radio-controlled helicopters. Small helicopters weigh 3 ki

lograms each, and are shipped in a container that weighs 20 kilograms. Large ones, on the other hand, weigh 4 kilograms apiece, and are shipped in a container that weighs 10 kilograms. If these boxes can hold a certain number of helicopters each, all of the packed containers will have the same shipping weight. What would the total weight be?

Answer:

50 kg

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

SMALL HELICOPTERS:

Weight of small helicopters = 3kg

Weight of shipping container = 20kg

LARGE HELICOPTERS:

Weight of large helicopters = 4kg

Weight of shipping container = 10kg

Number of helicopters each shipping container can hold = s ; all of the packed containers will have the same shipping weight

Shipping weight :

(Weight per helicopter * number of helicopter) + weight of shipping container

Shipping weight of Small helicopters :

(3kg * s) + 20

Shipping weight Large helicopters :

(4kg * S) + 10

Shipping weight of Small helicopters = shipping weight of large helicopters

3s + 20 = 4s + 10

20 - 10 = 4s - 3s

10 = s

Hence, member of shipped helicopters = 10

Total shipping weight :

(4 * S) + 10

(4*10) + 10

40 + 10 = 50kg

Mrrafil [7]

Express all possible lengths for this scrap as a compound inequality will be L ≤ 24.

<h3>What is inequality?</h3>

Inequality is defined as an equation that does not contain an equal sign. Inequality is a term that describes a statement's relative size and can be used to compare these two claims.

To repair a leak a plumber needs a pipe that is within 3/4 of an inch of 32 inches.

⇒ 3/4 x 32

⇒ 24

He already has a 48-inch pipe.

Let the variable L represents the length of the extra (scrap) that is removed from the 48-inch pipe will be

Then express all possible lengths for this scrap as a compound inequality will be

L + 24 ≤ 48

       L ≤ 48 - 24

       L ≤ 24

More about the inequality link is given below.

Grace [21]

Answer:

384 inches²

Step-by-step explanation:

The surface area of a cube is found by using 6a².

6 = the number of sides in a cube

a = the given dimension (in this case, 8 inches long)

SA = (6)8²

SA = 6(64)

SA = 384

Hope this helps, sorry if it’s not what you’re looking for :)
