The owner of a toy store received a shipment of 1,552 party favors. The party favors came in 28 boxes. The same number of party
favors were in 27 of the boxes. How many party favors were in the last box? Explain your answer. thank you!
1 answer:
let
x = the number of party favors in each of the 27 boxes
y = the number of party favors in the last box
the total number of party favors is 1,552
27x + y = 1,552
since 1552 = 57*27 + 13
if we assume that y<x we conclude that there are 57 party favors in each of the 27 boxes and 13 party favors in the last box.

Since EF=FG, you can set 6x - 10 = to 3x + 11
![6x -10 = 3x +11](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=6x%20-10%20%3D%203x%20%2B11)
Then add like terms
![6x - 3x = 11+10](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=6x%20-%203x%20%3D%2011%2B10)
so,
![3x = 21](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=3x%20%3D%2021)
Now you can divide by 3 to get
![x = 7](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=x%20%3D%207)
:)
then put it back into
![6x - 10](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=6x%20-%2010%20)
![6(7) - 10 = EF](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=6%287%29%20-%2010%20%3D%20EF)
so,
