Answer:
Answer:
\{ {{20x+30y=280} \atop {y=4x}} .{
y=4x
20x+30y=280
.
Where xx is the number of small boxes sent and yy is the number of large boxes sent.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let be xx the number of small boxes sent and yy the number of large boxes sent.
Since each small box can hold 20 books (20x20x ), each large box can hold 30 books (30y30y )and altogether can hold a total of 280 books, we can write the following equation to represent this:
20x+30y=28020x+30y=280
According to the information provided in the exercise, there were 4 times as many large boxes sent as small boxes. This can be represented with this equation:
y=4xy=4x
Therefore, the system of equation that be used to determine the number of small boxes sent and the number of large boxes sent, is:
\{ {{20x+30y=280} \atop {y=4x}} .{
y=4x
20x+30y=280

Here is my work for the problem. Hope this helps!
Answer:
4 3/8 cups of flour needed for 60 cookies
Explanation:
You can multiply 24 by 2.5 to get 60 so you'd multiply the cups of flour by 2.5 as well. You multiply both of them by the same number because it's a ratio. You'd multiply then simplify to get the answer 4 3/8 cups of flour.
