Let a = weight of large box in pounds
Let b = weight of small box in pounds
(1) 65a + 70b=4000
(2) a+b=60
Now we can simultaneously solve these equations.
a = 60 - b. Hence 65(60 - b) + 70b = 4000 So 3900 + 5b = 4000 and 100 = 5b hence b = 20.
SImilarly a = 40. Now we can verify too by putting in the calculated values.

Answer:
x + .20 = 1
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation would be x + .20= 1, or 1.00, because if you turn 20% into a decimal, it becomes .20. The total you are trying to find is 1 whole, in which this case it would simply be one as there is no other information. The x is first as if you had the .20 first, you would have to divide each side by .20, which would make x = 5, and that would not make sense.
Finding X: To find, subtract on each side by .20 due to the fact you are adding and need to do the opposite, .20-.20 cancels out and 1.00-.20 is .80, so you are left with x=.80
Answer:
Y = 2/3x-8/3
Step-by-step explanation:
y − 4 = 2/3 ( x − 3)
y − 4 = 2/3x -2
y = 2/3x +2
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-2 = 2/3(1) + b
b = -2 2/3 = -8/3
Step-by-step explanation:
since it is in the same line as DE, both have the same slope.
the slope is the ratio of "y coordinate change / x coordinate change" when going from one point on the line to another.
and so by using the coordinates of D and E
x changes by +4 (from 8 to 12).
y changes by -8 (from 32 to 24).
the slope is therefore
-8/+4 = -2
