George and Riley are selling fruit for a school fundraiser. Customers can buy small boxes of oranges and large boxes of oranges.

George sold 3 small boxes of oranges and 14 large boxes of oranges for a total of $203. Riley sold 11 small boxes of oranges and 11 large boxes of oranges for a total of $220. Find the cost of each of one small box or oranges and one large box of oranges.

The cost of small box of oranges is $7.

The cost of large box of oranges is $13.

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

It is given that,

3 small boxes of oranges and 14 large boxes of oranges for a total of $203.

11 small boxes of oranges and 11 large boxes of oranges for a total of $220.

Let us take,

  • The cost of small box of oranges = x
  • The cost of large box of oranges = y

<u>The system of equations are framed as :</u>

3x + 14y = 203  ---------(1)

11x + 11y = 220  ---------(2)

<u>To solve these equations for x and y values :</u>

Multiply equation (1) by 11 and equation (2) by 3

Subtract eq(2) from eq(1),

 33x + 154y = 2233

- <u>(33x + 33y = 660)  </u>

  <u>        121 y = 1573  </u>

⇒ y = 1573 / 121

⇒ y = 13

∴ The cost of large box of oranges is $13.

Substitute y=13 in the eq(1),

⇒ 3x + 14(13) = 203

⇒ 3x + 182 = 203

⇒ 3x = 203 - 182

⇒ 3x = 21

⇒ x = 21 / 3

⇒ x = 7

∴ The cost of small box of oranges is $7.

Answer:

  11) C: (a, 4), (b, 3), (c, 2), (d, 1); V: (a, c), (b, d), (4, 2), (3, 1);

     AI: (c, 4), (d, 3); AE: (a, 2), (b, 1); SI: (c, 3), (d, 4); SE: (a, 1), (b, 2)

  12) : C: (a, y), (b, x), (c, w), (d, z); V:(a, c), (b, d), (w, y), (x, z);

     AI: (b, z), (c, y); AE: (a, w), (d, x); SI: (b, y), (c, z); SE: (a, x), (d, w)

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a vocabulary question. It is intended to see if you understand the meaning of the names given to the different angle pairs in this geometry.

All of the pairs of angles filling the first 4 blanks (corresponding, vertical, alt. int., alt. ext.) are congruent pairs of angles. The pairs of angles filling the last two blanks (same-side ...) are supplementary angles (total 180°).

__

<em>Corresponding</em> angles lie in the same direction from the point of intersection. For example, the upper-left angles are corresponding.

<em>Vertical</em> angles are formed from opposite rays.

<em>Alternate</em> refers to angles on opposite sides of the transversal. (<em>Same-side </em>refers to angles on the same side of the transversal. Same-side angles are also called <em>consecutive</em> angles.)

<em>Interior</em> refers to angles that are between the parallel lines. <em>Exterior</em> refers to angles outside the parallel lines.

__

The figures are a bit fuzzy. We assume the angle designations are (CW around the intersection point from upper left, left group first) ...

  Figure 11) {a, b, c, d}, {4, 3, 2, 1}

  Figure 12) {d, c, b, a}, {z, w, x, y}

If this is not correct, you will need to make appropriate substitutions in the pairs given below.

__

11) Corresponding: (a, 4), (b, 3), (c, 2), (d, 1)

  Vertical: (a, c), (b, d), (4, 2), (3, 1)

  Alternate Interior: (c, 4), (d, 3)

  Alternate Exterior: (a, 2), (b, 1)

  Same-side Interior: (c, 3), (d, 4)

  Same-side Exterior: (a, 1), (b, 2)

__

12) Corresponding: (a, y), (b, x), (c, w), (d, z)

  Vertical: (a, c), (b, d), (w, y), (x, z)

  Alternate Interior: (b, z), (c, y)

  Alternate Exterior: (a, w), (d, x)

  Same-side Interior: (b, y), (c, z)

  Same-side Exterior: (a, x), (d, w)

_____

<em>Additional comment</em>

The vocabulary is used to cite various theorems supporting claims regarding angle relationships. In practice, when the lines are parallel, all obtuse angles related to a transversal are congruent, all acute angles are congruent, and the acute angles are supplementary to the obtuse angles. (If the angles are 90°, neither acute nor obtuse, then they are all congruent.)

Twice the difference of a number and 9 is equal to three times the sum of the number and 6. Find the number
bezimeni [28]

After modelling the mathematical statement and solving its equivalent mathematical relation, we get x = -36.

<h3>What is Equation Modelling?</h3>

Equation modelling is the process of writing a given mathematical statement in the form of a numeric mathematical expression taking into considerations the operations, constants and other variables.

Given in the question is a number such that twice the difference of a number and 9 is equal to three times the sum of the number and 6.

Assume that the number is x. Now, we will model the equation and solve for x. According to the question, the following mathematical relation represents the statement-

2(x - 9) = 3(x + 6)

2x - 18 = 3x + 18

x = - 36

Therefore, the number is -36.
