Answer:

Small boxes: 8

Large boxes: 11

Step-by-step explanation:

number of small boxes = x

number of large boxes = y

weight of boxes is represented by:

50x + 80y = 1280

Number of boxes is represented by:

x + y = 19

First, we'll solve for x in terms of y:

x = 19-y

Then we'll substitute that into the weight equation

50(19-y) + 80y = 1280

950 - 50y + 80y = 1280

30y = 330

y = 11

Now drop that numerical value into the number of boxes equation, and we'll get

x + 11 = 19

x = 8

Check the math in the weight equation:

50(8) + 80(11) =

400 + 880 = 1280

Let me know if you have any questions. Have a good evening!

What is the inverse of the functionf(x)=2x+1
inna [77]
To find the inverse you have steps
1. replace f(x) with y
2. swich x and y places
3. solve for y
4. replace y with f⁻¹(x) (read 'f inverse')

so we have
f(x)=2x+1

replace f(x) with y
y=2x+1

switch x and y
x=2y+1

solve for y
x=2y+1
subtract 1
x-1=2y
divide both sides by 2
\frac{x-1}{2}=y
y=\frac{x-1}{2}
repplace y with f⁻¹(x)
f⁻¹(x)=\frac{x-1}{2}

bulgar [2K]

Answer:

y-5=11

y-5+5=11+5 (Add 5 to both sides)

y=16 (Simplify)

I believe that y=16 cannot be simplified so y=16 should be the answer let me know if it helped.
