Answer:
w = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
-6(w - 4) + 8W=6(w + 2)
-6w + 24 + 8w = 6w + 12
2w + 24 = 6w + 12
12 = 4w
3 = w
Answer: 100 boxes
Step-by-step explanation:
Hi, since 1 ton = 2,000 lbs
We have to divide 10lbs by 2000 to convert the lbs in tons.
1t/2000lb = xt / 10lb
10 /2000=0.005
0.005 ton = 10 lbs (1 bag)
Each box has 4 bags
0.005 ton x 4 = 0.02 ton
So each box weights 0.02 ton
Since we need 2 tons.
Using proportions:
0.02t/1 box= 2 t / x boxes
x = 2 / (0.02/1)
x = 100 boxes
