Answer:
- large: 40 lbs
- small: 20 lbs
Step-by-step explanation:
A system of equations can be written for the weights of the boxes based on the relationships given in the problem statement. One equation will be for the total weight of 1 large and 1 small box; the other will be for the total weight of 70 large and 60 small boxes.
Let L and S represent the weights of Large and Small boxes, respectively. The system of equations is ...
L + S = 60 . . . . . . combined weight is 60 lbs
70L +60S = 4000 . . . . weight of boxes in the truck
__
We can solve this by substituting for s in the second equation.
70L +60(60 -L) = 4000
10L = 400 . . . . . . . . . subtract 3600, simplify
L = 40
S = 60 -L = 20
A large box weighs 40 pounds; a small box weighs 20 pounds.

Answer:
Harriet's estimated length is between 44.1 inches and 47 inches.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the error be x.
so, x<4%
Now, if error is 1%
45 1/2 + 1% of 45 1/2
or, 91/2 + 1/ 100 × 91/2
= 46
Now,
45 1/2 - 1% of 45 1/2
or, 91/2 - 1/100 × 91/2
= 45.1
Now,
if error is 3%
45 1/2 + 3% of 45 1/2
or, 91/2 + 3/100 × 91/2
= 47
OR
45 1/2 - 3% of 45 1/2
= 91/2 - 3/100 × 91/2
= 44.1
