10 small boxes and 11 large boxes were shipped.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given,
Total boxes shipped = 21
Total volume of shipped boxes = 342 cubic feet
Volume of each small box = 10 cubic feet
Volume of each large box = 22 cubic feet
Let,
Number of small boxes = x
Number of large boxes = y
According to given statement;
x+y=21 Eqn 1
10x+22y=342 Eqn 2
Multiplying Eqn 1 by 10
Subtracting Eqn 3 from Eqn 2
Dividing both sides by 12
Putting y=11 in Eqn 1
10 small boxes and 11 large boxes were shipped.

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
The speed of the boat in still water is 10 miles / hour
Step-by-step explanation:
The trip there, and the trip back are the same -- 30 miles
Let the rate of the boat = x
Let the rate of the water = y
30 = 2*(x + y)
30 = 6*(x - y)
Divide the top equation by 2
Divide the bottom equation by 6
15 = x + y
<u>5 = x - y </u> Add the equations together.
20 = 2x Divide by 2
20/2 = x
x = 10
