Answer:

Solution given:

model A printers [a] prints=80books per day

model B printers [b] prints=55books per day

total no of printers =9

no of model A printers be x

and

no of model B printers be [9-x]

According to the question;

ax+(9-x)b=670 books

substituting value of a and b; we get

80x+(9-x)55=670

80x-55x+495=670

25x=670-495=175

x=\frac{175}{25}=7

So;

no of model A printers =x=<u>7</u>

no of model B printers =9-x=9-7=<u>2</u>

<u>is</u><u> </u><u>your</u><u> </u><u>answer</u><u>.</u>

GIVEN:

  • <u>Model A</u>:— 80books/day. (a)
  • <u>Model B</u>:— 55books/day. (b)

ANSWER:

Let number of progression Model A be x then Model B be (9 - x).

According to question,

  • ax + (9 - x)b = 670

Plugging the respective value.

  • 80x + (9 - x)55 = 670
  • 80x - 55x + 495 = 670
  • 25x = 670 - 495
  • 25x = 175
  • x = 7.

Therefore, No. of Model A printers is 7 and No. of Model B printers is 2.

Answer: 4,320 inches cubed.

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1----- Volume of 1 canvas box

Volume of solid  for a rectangular box = Length x width xHeight
