Mathematics

Answer:

28 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

From this, you already know that 2/7 of x is equal to 8 pounds (x being the actual weight of the package). the equation would be 2/7(x)=8 to simplify this, you divide both sides by 2/7. x=8/2/7. this is the same as x=8*7/2 which is x=56/2. so your finale answer is 28 because 56/2 is 28!

Cousin Hector drove 1,851 miles to the reunion. He lives in Mexico and drove 747 miles through that country to the United States
Sonja [21]

Answer:

1104 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Say he lives in a place in Mexico which is at a distance of <em>a </em>miles from the Mexico-America border point and the reunion is at <em>b </em>miles from the same border point, in America.

So the total distance travelled is ( a + b ) miles

( this is just sum of distance travelled in Mexico + that in America )

Given , a=747 and a+b=1851

that implies:

747 + b = 1851

So, b = 1104 miles.

Therefore he has travelled 1104 miles in America,
