Answer:

12 small boxes

8 large boxes

Step-by-step explanation:

let x be the number of small boxes shipped

let y be the number of large boxes shipped

This means:

the total number of boxes is 20, so

x + y = 20

the number of 50 pound boxes is x and the number of 100 pound boxes is y and together there are 1400 pounds, so

50x + 100y = 1400

Then, solve

First, simplify the equation 50x + 100y = 1400 by dividing both sides by 50

x + 2y = 28

Now, subtract the two equations:

x + 2y = 28

- (x + y = 20)

y = 8

Now plug this into the equation x + y = 20

x + 8 = 20

x = 12

So the number of small boxes is 12 and the number of large boxes is 8.

Here's a graph:

Just find the figure of the rectangle plss
AnnZ [28]

Answer:

x= 21

y= 3

z= 21

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the center be O,

=> Triangle AOD is an Isosceles triangle so AO≅DO, "21 = x"

=> Line AC is divided in two equal parts by the center so if AO= 21 then

    7y = 21, and thus "y = 3"

=> BOC is also an Isosceles triangle so CO ≅ BO, if CO = 21 (7y → 7*3) then so will be BO. Therefore "z = 21"
