Answer:

the large box weight is 6.50 kg and the small box weight is 13.75 kg

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of each type of box weight is as follows:

Let us assume the large box be x

And, the small box be y

So,

2x + 3y = 47.......(i)

6x + 5y = 115........(ii)

Multiply by 3 in equation 1

6x + 9y = 141

6x + 5y = 115

Now subtract the last equation from the above one

4y = 26

y = 6.50

For x, it would be

2x+ 3(6.50) = 47

2x + 19.5 = 47

2x = 47 - 19.50

2x = 27.50

x = 13.75

Hence, the large box weight is 6.50 kg and the small box weight is 13.75 kg

A frog is hopping along in a straight line. Each hop is twice as far as its previous hop. Its first hop covers 1 inch. After 8 h
torisob [31]
The frog's jump represent a geometric series.
The sum of finite geometric series can be solved using the equation:
Sn = ao ( (1-r^n)/(1-r) )

Plugging in the values,
S8 = 1 ( (1-2^8)/(1-2) )
S8 = 255

Therefore, after 8 hops, the frog will have traveled 255 inches

Find the total surface area of the net below.
Solnce55 [7]

Total surface area of the triangular prism is  81.6 square m.

Step-by-step explanation:

  • b = 3 m
  • h = 2.6 m
  • p = 3+ 2.6 +2.6=  8.2
  • H = 9 m
  • SA = bh + pH

    = 3 × 2.6 + 8.2 ×9

    = 7.8 + 73.8

    = 81.6

  • Therefore,
  • SA = 81.6 square m
  • Total surface area of the triangular prism is  81.6 square m.
