Step-by-step explanation:

S=smaller number; L=larger number=3S

4S+5L=133

4S+5(3S)=133

4S+15S=133

19S=133

S=7 ANSWER 1: The smaller number is 7.

L=3S=3(7)=21 ANSWER 2: The larger number is 21.

CHECK:

4S+5L=133

4(7)+5(21)=133

28+105=133

133=133

On one side of the balance scale, Henry placed a 6-gram weight. On the other side of the scale, he placed a ballet slipper.

olchik [2.2K]

Answer:

A. 6,000 miligrams

Explanation:

A balance scale is balanced when the weights on both sides are equal. Then, since the image shows that both sides are equal, the weight of the 6-gram weight, placed by Henry on one side of the balance scale is equal to the weight of the ballet slipper placed on the other side.

Weight of the balance slipper = weight of the 6-gram weight

Weight of the balance slipper = 6 grams

Conversion of units:

6 grams × 1,000miligrams/1gram = 6,000 miligrams

Weight of the balance slipper = 6,000 miligrams

That is the option A.
