Answer: (s for small, l for large) s=15.25 kg, l=18.5 kg.


Explanation: We need a system of equation to find the two weights of both boxes.
We can use 4s+8l=209 and 2s+3l=86.

If we multiply the second equation by -2 (for elimination), we will have -4s-6l=-172.

Combing the first equation with this new one gives us 2l=37, where dividing by 2 gives us l=18.5 kg.

We can plug 18.5 into any of the two original equations to find s.

4s+8*18.5=209
4s+148=209
4s=61
s=15.25 kg

the table shows the number of minutes Tim has for lunch and study hall. he calculates that these two periods account for 18% of
EleoNora [17]

Tim spends 500 minutes at the school.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Time for lunch = 45 minutes

Time for study hall = 45 minutes

Total = 45+45 = 90 minutes

This represents 18% of the total minutes Tim spend at school.

Let,

x be the total minutes Tim spend at school.

18% of x = 90 minutes

\frac{18}{100}x=90\\\\0.18x=90

Dividing both sides by 0.18

\frac{0.18x}{0.18}=\frac{90}{0.18}\\x=500

Tim spends 500 minutes at the school.
