A paper company needs to ship paper to a large printing business. The paper will be shipped in small boxes and large boxes. Each

Alecsey [184]

Answer:

There were 7 small boxes and 14 large boxes shipped.

Step-by-step explanation:

This problem may be solved by a system of equations:

I am going to say that:

x is the number of small boxes used

y is the number of large boxes used

There were twice as many large boxes shipped as small boxes shipped

This means that y = 2x

Each small box of paper weighs 45 pounds and each large box of paper weighs 80 pounds. The total weight of all boxes was 1435 pounds.

This means that 45x + 80y =1435

So we have to solve the following system:

y=2x

45x + 80y =1435

45x + 80 (2x) = 1435

205x = 1435

x= 1435/205

x=7

y=2x= 2(7) = 14

There were 7 small boxes and 14 large boxes shipped.

How many different ways can a coach select the captain and co-captain of a team from a group of 20 people?

sergij07 [2.7K]

The coach can select the captain in 20 ways (i.e. from all the available 20 players), and he can select the co-captain in 19 ways (i.e. after selecting the captain, there will be 19 people left).
Therefore, the coach can select the captain and the co-captain in 20 x 19 = 380 ways.

Susan works as a tutor for $10 and hour, and as a waitress for $11 an hour. This month, she worked a combined total of 90 hours

uysha [10]

Answer:

$\$(990-t)$

Step-by-step explanation:

The correct question is

Susan works as a tutor for $10 and hour, and as a waitress for $11 an hour. This month, she worked a combined total of 90 hours at her two jobs. Let t be the number of hours Susan worked as a tutor this month. Write an expression for the combined total dollar amount she earned this month

Let

t -----> the number of hours that Susan work as a tutor

y ----> the number of hours that Susan work as a waitress

z ---> the combined total dollar amount she earned this month

we know that

$t+y=90$

$y=90-t$ -----> equation A

we know that

The combined total dollar amount she earned this month is equal to the number of hours that Susan work as a tutor multiplied by $10 plus the number of hours that Susan work as a waitress multiplied by $11

$z=10t+11y$ ----> equation B

substitute equation A in equation B

$z=10t+11(90-t)$

$z=10t+990-11t$

$z=990-t$

therefore

The expression for the combined total dollar amount is $(990-t)
