Answer: A = 317

B = 61

Step-by-step explanation:

The following equation can be gotten from the question given. This will be:

A + B = 379 ........ i

A - B = 255 ........ ii

From equation i, make A the subject of the formula

A = 379 - B ...... iii

Put the value of A in iii into equation ii

A - B = 255

(379 - B) - B = 255

379 - B - B = 255

379 - 2B = 255

2B = 379-255

2B = 124

B = 124/2

B = 62 tons

Since A + B = 379

A + 62 = 379

A = 379 - 62

A = 317 tons

5/2n - 11 + 11 = 5 / 2n

I am stuck please help!

Answer:

5x - 63 = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Okay, first step, let's get all fractions having a common denominator, to do this, multiply 2/3 by 3 to get 6/9. Now, we have 5/9x-7=6/9. To make these into whole numbers, we can multiply the whole equation by the denominator (9). 5/9x multiplied by 9 is 5. 7 multiplied by 9 is 63. 6/9 multiplied by 9 is 6. Now we have 5x-63=6. If I were to simplify the equation, it would require decimals, so I'll leave it at this, but the equation simplified is x=13.8.
