X = one of the box
x + 4 = second both
38 = total weight(pounds)
Now combine them
x + x + 4 = 38
2x = 34, x = 17
17 + 4 = 21 (second box)
One box weights 17 pounds and the other weighs 21 pounds

A school chorus has 90 sixth-grade students and 75 seventh-grade students. The music director wants to make groups of performers
Tresset [83]

Answer:

The music director can form a total of 15 groups

6 Sixth grade students per group

5 Seventh grade students per group

Step-by-step explanation:

Sixth grade students = 90

Seventh grade students = 75

Find the highest common factor of 75 and 90

90 = 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 9, 10, 15, 18, 30, 45, 90.

75 = 1, 3, 5, 15, 25, 75

The highest common factor of 75 and 90 is 15

Therefore, the music director can form a total of 15 groups

Sixth grade students per group = 90 / 15

= 6 Sixth grade students per group

Seventh grade students per group = 75 / 15

= 5 Seventh grade students per group

Solve For Each Variable.
bixtya [17]

The first equation given 6=1-2n+5

We have to add 1 and 5 to the right side first. We will get,

6= 6 - 2n

To get rid of 6 from the right side we have to subtract 6 from both sides.

6-6 = 6-6-2n

6-6 = -2n

0=-2n

To find n we have to move -2 to the other side by dividing both side by -2.

0/-2 = -2n/-2

0= n

n=0

So we have got the required answer for the first question.

The solution is n = 0.

The second equation given,

8x-2 = -9+7x

First we have to move 7x to the left side by subtracting it from both sides.

8x-7x-2 = -9+7x-7x

8x-7x-2 = -9

x-2 = -9

Now we have to move -2 to the right side by adding 2 to both sides.

x-2+2 = -9+2

x = -9+2

x = -7

We have got the required answer for the second question.

The solution is x = -7.

The third equation given,

-8 = -(x+4)

We have to get rid of that negative sign from both sides. As we have negative sign to both sides we can cancel it out. We will get,

8=x+4

Now we have to move 4 to left side by subtracting it from both sides.

8-4 = x+4-4

8-4 = x

4=x

x = 4

So we have got the required answer .

The solution is x = 4.
