Let L and S represent the weights of large and small boxes, respectively. The problem statement gives rise to two equations:
.. 7L +9S = 273
.. 5L +3S = 141
You can solve these equations various ways. Using "elimination", we can multiply the second equation by 3 and subtract the first equation.
.. 3(5L +3S) -(7L +9S) = 3(141) -(273)
.. 8L = 150
.. L = 150/8 = 18.75
Then we can substitute into either equation to find S. Let's use the second one.
.. 5*18.75 +3S = 141
.. S = (141 -93.75)/3 = 15.75
A large box weighs 18.75 kg; a small box weighs 15.75 kg.
Answer:
K = -72
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Get K/9 by itself to do so add 3 to both sides eliminating it on the left by turning the -11 into -8
2. Multiply by 9 on both sides eliminating the division of 9 on the left and turning -8 into -72 leaving the equation as K = -72
To eliminate a number you must do its opposite so the opposite of -3 is +3 so you +3 to both sides. And always start the equation by eliminating what is not connected to the variable in this case the 9 was connected to the variable as K/9.
X^2 - 10x + 8 =0
x^2 - 10 + (-10/2)^2 - (-10/2)^2 + 8 = 0
(x - 5)^2 - 25 + 8 = 0
(x - 5)^2 - 17 = 0
To be honest , this is the final step for this equation. It seems like there is no any suitable answer for this question..
To me , I think the best answer will be the third option.
x - 5 =0
x = 5
2x-10 = 0
2x = 10
x = 5
I guess this answer seems like legit.. So I will choose the third option.
Answer:
<u>The correct answer is C. It is the original amount of money the bank loans the borrower.</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's recall that are five basic elements for calculating the payment of a loan:
1. The principal. How much money you borrow.
2. The interest rate. How much money you will pay in addition to the principal.
3. The period of time. How long will it takes you to pay the loan.
4. The frequency of payment. Will you pay every month?, every quarter?, every year or maybe every two weeks?
5. Additional payments. When you have additional income seasonally and you want to lower either the period of time or the interests to pay.
