Answer:
second option
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
+ 6x² + 5 = 0
let u = x², then
u² + 6u + 5 = 0 ← in standard form
(u + 1)(u + 5) = 0 ← in factored form
Equate each factor to zero and solve for u
u + 1 = 0 ⇒ u = - 1
u + 5 = 0 ⇒ u = - 5
Change u back into terms of x, that is
x² = - 1 ( take the square root of both sides )
x = ± = ± i ( noting that = i ), and
x² = - 5 ( take the square root of both sides )
x = ± = ± = ± × = ± i
Solutions are x = ± i and x = ± i
Let's let the weight of a large box be L, and the weight of a small box be S.
We know that 5 large boxes and 3 small boxes is 120kg, so:
5L + 3S = 120
We also know that 7 large boxes and 9 small boxes is 234kg, so:
7L + 9S = 234
You can multiply the first equation by 3 to get:
15L + 9S = 360
See how now both equations have 9S? We can now subtract one from the other:
(15L+9S) - (7L+9S) = 360-234
8L = 126
L = 15.75
Now sub this value back into an equation:
(5x15.75) + 3S = 120
3S = 41.25
S = 13.75
Double check these values
(7x15.75) + (9x13.75)
= 110.25 + 123.75
=234, which is consistent with above.
So a large box is 15.75kg, and a small box is 13.75kg.
Hope this helped

The Lesser Sooty Owl is a strictly nocturnal bird. Hides & sleeps during the day in dense foliage, between tangles of aerial roots, in all kinds of crevices, or beneath overhanging banks. Hunts in clearings and near roads, but also inside forest.
