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

9. 3x + 9y = 18<br> y = x + 2<br> Substitution method
777dan777 [17]

Answer:

x = 0

y = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

3x + 9y = 18 ---------eqn 1

y = x + 2---------eqn 2

Substitute eqn 2 into eqn 1, for the value of y

3x + 9( x + 2) = 18

3x + 9x + 18 = 18

12x + 18 = 18

12x = 18 -18

12x = 0

Divide both sides by 12 , to get the value of x.

12x/ 12 = 0/12

x = 0

Substitute x = 0 into eqn 2

y = x + 2

y = 0 +2

y = 2

Hint: to confirm the values

x = 0

y = 2

Let's take eqn 1 ,

3x + 9y = 18

3(0) + 9(2)

= 0 + 18

= 18

Correct

Let's take eqn 2

y = x + 2

Let's find y

y = 0 + 2

y = 2

Correct too
