Answer:

The number of large boxes is 55 and the number of small boxes is 70

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>The complete question is</em></u>

A delivery truck is transporting boxes of two sizes: large and small. The large boxes weigh 50 pounds each, and the small boxes weigh 20 pounds each. There are 125 boxes in all. If the truck is carrying a total of 4150 pounds in boxes, how many of each type of box is it carrying?

Let

x ------> the number of large boxes

y -----> the number of small boxes

we know that

x+y=125 -----> equation A

50x+20y=4,150 ----> equation B

Solve the system by graphing

Remember that the solution of the system of equations is the intersection point both graphs

The intersection point is (55,70)

therefore

The number of large boxes is 55 and the number of small boxes is 70

The 3-D shape would be created if the figure was rotated around the x-axis is a cone

<h3>What are 3-D shapes?</h3>

3-D shapes (short form of 3-Dimensional shapes) are shapes that have width, length and height

<h3>How to determine the 3-D shape?</h3>

The coordinates are given as:

(0, 0), (-3, -4) and (-3, 0)

When the above coordinates are plotted on a coordinate plane and the points are connected;

We can see that the points form a right-triangle

See attachment for the shape

As a general rule

Rotating a right-triangle across the x-axis would form a cone

Hence, the 3-D shape would be created if the figure was rotated around the x-axis is a cone

What is the recursive formula for 100, 80, 64, 51.2?
bonufazy [111]

From 100 to 80 is 8/10, so the recursive formula is

an=a(n-1)*1/8

or

an= a1*1/8(n-1)

an=a1*(n-1)/8

7. Given the following information, calculate, in order, the amount credited and the outstanding balance.
svp [43]

Answer:

C. $824.74, $175.26

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Amount Credited

The formula to calculate the amount credited =

Amount paid ÷ ( 100% - Discount)

Discount is given in the question as 3/10

Where 3 = Discount rate

Amount paid = $800

Amount credited = 800/( 100% - 3%)

= 800/ 97%

= 800/ 0.97

= $824.74

b) Outstanding balance = Invoice - Amount credited

Invoice = $1000

Amount credited = $824.74

Outstanding balance = $1000 - $824.74

= $175.26

Two sides of an acute triangle meaure 5 inches and 8 inches. The length of the longest side is unknown. What is the greatest pos
gladu [14]

The greatest whole possible whole number length of the unknown side is 9 inches.

<h3>How to identify if a triangle is acute?</h3>

Let us have:

H = biggest side of the triangle

And let we get  A and B as rest of the two sides.

Then we get:

If

A^2 + B^2 < C^2

then the triangle is acute

Two sides of an acute triangle measure as 5 inches and 8 inches

The length of the longest side is unknown.

We have to find the length of the unknown side

WE know that the longest side of any triangle is a hypotenuse

For an acute triangle we know:

A^2 + B^2 < C^2

Here in this sum,

a = 5 inches

b = 8 inches

c = ?

Substituting we get,

A^2 + B^2 < C^2\\\\5^2 + 8^2 < C^2\\\\25 + 64= C^2

c < 9

Hence, The greatest whole possible whole number length of the unknown side is 9 inches.
