Answer:
(6.2, 4.5)
Step-by-step explanation:
We want, for some point P, ...
(P -A) / (B -P) = 1 / 3
3(P -A) = (B - P) . . . . . multiply by 3
4P = B +3A . . . . . . . . add P+3A
P = (B +3A)/4 . . . . . . .divide by 4
Filling in the coordinate values, we can find P to be ...
P = ((2.3, 5.4) +3(7.5, 4.2))/4 = (2.3+22.5, 5.4+12.6)/4
P = (6.2, 4.5)
X = large boxes and y = small boxes
x + y = 70.....x = 70 - y
60x + 65y = 4300
60(70 - y) + 65y = 4300
4200 - 60y + 65y = 4300
5y = 4300 - 4200
5y = 100
y = 100/5
y = 20 <=== the small boxes weigh 20 lbs
x + y = 70
x + 20 = 70
x = 70 - 20
x = 50 <== and the large boxes weigh 50 lbs
X-3=66
x=69
69+41+(y-9)=180
110+y-9=180
101+y=180
y=79
0.02% of 40 million pounds is 8000 (pounds)
