Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x and y represent the weights of the large and small boxes, respectively. The problem statement gives rise to the system of equations ...
x + y = 85 . . . . . combined weight of a large and small box
70x +50y = 5350 . . . . combined weight of 70 large and 50 small boxes
We can subtract 50 times the first equation from the second to find the weight of a large box.
(70x +50y) -50(x +y) = (5350) -50(85)
20x = 1100 . . . . simplify
x = 55 . . . . . . . divide by 20
Using this in the first equation, we can find the weight of a small box.
55 +y = 85
y = 30 . . . . . . . subtract 55
A large box weighs 55 pounds; a small box weighs 30 pounds.
X is the number
sum means add
sum of half a number and 4 means
(x/2)+4
result is -16
(x/2)+4=-16
minus 4 both sides
x/2=-20
times 2 both sides
x=-40
the number is -40
There is no statements to choose from
Probably C)
it starts with 8-foot diameter, and it is supposed to get smaller
This is just a theory
Answer: 12.65 ft
Pythagorean theorem is 
+ 
= 
So, + 
= 
169 - 9 = 160
is 12.65.
Hope it helps.
