pretty much about the same as before.
a = weight of a large box
b = weight of a small box.
we know their combined weight is 65 lbs, thus a + b = 65.
we also know that the truck has 60 large ones, and 55 small ones, thus 60*a is the total weight for the large ones and 55*b is the total weight for the small ones, and we know that is a total of 3775, 60a + 55b = 3775.
5x + 2y = 6
3x + y = 4....multiply by -2
-------------
5x + 2y = 6
-6x - 2y = -8 (result of multiplying by -2)
-------------add
-x = -2
x = 2
5x + 2y = 6
5(2) + 2y = 6
10 + 2y = 6
2y = 6 - 10
2y = -4
y = -4/2
y = -2 <=== here it is
8th grader here, what do you need help with?

Answer:
Yes, they are.
Step-by-step explanation:
<h3>1st rate)</h3>
Lets simplify both rates to the rate typer per minute.
(m is minutes)
3m = 96
Divide both sides by 3:
m = 32
So the rate is 32 words per minute.
<h3>2nd rate</h3>
5m = 160
Divide both sides by 5:
m = 32
<h3>So because the rates per minute are the same, they are equivalent.</h3>
<h2>Hope this helps!</h2>
7. 3/4 x 12 is 9 so subtract 9/12 from 12/12 to get 3/12
