Answer:
A: 244 pounds
B: 122 pounds
C: 274 pounds
Step-by-step explanation:
We have A+B+C = 640; A=2B; C=A+30. Substituting the last into the first gives ...
A + B + (A +30) = 640
2A +B = 610 . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 30
Substituting the second into this equation gives ...
2(2B) +B = 610
B = 610/5 = 122 . . . . . divide by 5
A = 2B = 244 . . . . . . . .find A from B
C = A+30 = 274 . . . . . find C from A
Box A weighs 244 pounds; box B weighs 122 pounds; box C weighs 274 pounds.
Answer:
<u>25 hours</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
It takes 5 men 45 hours to build a wall.
So, if no. of men increases by 1.8 [∴ 5 x 1.8 = 9],
then time taken reduces by that same amount.
=> 45 hours / 1.8
=> 45 / (9/5)
=> 45 x 5 / 9
=> 5 x 5
=> <u>25 hours</u>
Answer:
8
Step-by-step explanation:
goes plus 1 then plus 2 then plus 3 so then it would be plus 4
20/4 = 5
$5 is the cost of 1 shirt.
L-s=16
4s-5=l
4s-l=5
3s=21
s=7
l-7=16
l=16+7
l=23
The smaller number is 7 and the greater number is 23
