You can complete this by solving:
$215 + 215(x) = 274$
Which should give you .274418 or 27.44%

a fruit delivers its fruit in two types of boxes: large and small. a delivery of 3 large boxes and 5 small boxes has a total wei

Masteriza [31]

Answer:

The weight of a small box = 13.5 kg

The weight of 1 large box = 18.5 kg

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us assume the weight of a small box = m kg

And the weight of 1 large box = n kg

Now, the weight of 5 small box = 5 x (weight of 1 small box) = 5 m

Also, the weight of 3 large box = 3 x (weight of 1 large box) = 3 n

Here, 3 large boxes + 5 small boxes = of 123 kilograms

⇒ 5 m + 3 n = 123 .... (1)

Again, the weight of 2 small box = 2 x (weight of 1 small box) = 2 m

Also, the weight of 12 large box = 12 x (weight of 1 large box) = 12 n

Here, 12 large boxes + 2 small boxes = 249 kilograms

⇒ 2 m+ 12 n = 249 .... (2)

Now, solving both the given equations by ELIMINATION, we get:

5 m + 3 n = 123 x (2)

2 m+ 12 n = 249 x (-5)

we get the new set of equitation as:

10 m + 6 n = 246

- 10 m - 60 n = -1245

Adding both equation, we get

-54 n = 999

or, n = 18.5

Now, 5 m + 3 n = 123

So, 5 m = 123 -3 (18.5) = 123 - 55.5 = 67.5

⇒ m = 13.5

Hence, the weight of a small box = m kg = 13.5 kg

And the weight of 1 large box = n kg = 18.5 kg

13 - 3/2 Pls give an explanation

postnew [5]

13-3/2 you need to make a common denominator, so

26/2-3/2 then subtract the numerators, the denominator remains.

23/2 now simplify the fraction

11½ this is because 22/2+1/2=23/2, and 22/2=11, so 11+1/2 or 11½

Please help me with this math problem!! :) Will give BRAINLIEST!! :)

The rate of change will be positive and a point in the graph will be (1,250);
the function then would be y = 250x;
after 1 year she will owe USD 5,250;
she will have to make 33 payments.

How to form equation using slope and one point?
y - y1 = m(x - x1) is the equation of a straight line's point slope form, where m is the line's slope and (x1, y1) is the point through which the provided line passes.

Using slope-point equation, the equation for the payment can be taken as:
y-250 = [(500-250)/(2-1)]*(x-1)
y - 250 = 250*(x-1)
y = 250 + 250x - 250 = 250x;
Putting x = 12, for a year the amount paid is USD 3,000.
Amount she owes = USD (8250-3000) = USD 5,250;
Total amount to be paid (in USD) = 8250
Amount paid per month (in USD) = 250
Thus, number of payments required = 8250/250 = 33

Thus, the rate of change will be positive and a point in the graph will be (1,250); the function then would be y = 250x; after 1 year she will owe USD 5,250; she will have to make 33 payments.
