Answer:

weight of large box = x kg=18.25kg

weight of small box =y kg=15.5kg

Step-by-step explanation:

2 large boxes and 3 small boxes has a total weight of 83 kilograms.

2x+3y=83--------- eq 1

4 large boxes and 8 small boxes has a total weight of 197 kilograms.

4x+8y =197 -------eq 2

multiply eq 1 with -2

-4x-6y =-166

now add both equations

-4x-6y=-166

4x+8y=197

______________________

     2y= 31

       y=15.5

substitute value of y=17 in eq 1

2x+3y=83

2x+3(15.5)=83

2x+46.5=83

2x =36.5

x=18.25

Answer:

m=7/9

Step-by-step explanation:

-5(-5m+5)=-2m-4

25m-25=-2m-4      

25m+2m=-4+25

27m=21

÷ 27  ÷ 27     (divide both sides)

m=7/9 or .777 (infinite)

Which of the following points lie in the solution set to the following system of inequalities? (1 point)
sineoko [7]
(1,-10) 
the 10 must be negative

reason why the others dont work:
(1,10) too positive, the other two start negative, no way is it going to be way up here
(10,1) still too high
(-1,10) then again, too high

Una recta que pasa por los puntos A (2,1) y B (6,3) y otra recta pasa por A y por el punto (0,y) ¿Cuánto vale y, si ambas rectas
ASHA 777 [7]

The translation of the question given is

A line that passes through the points A (2,1) and B (6,3) and another line passes through A and through the point (0, y). What is y worth, if both lines are perpendicular?

Answer:

y = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Line 1 that passes through A (2,1) and B (6,3)  

Slope (m1) = 3-1/6-2 = 2/4 = 1/2

y - 1 = \frac{1}{2} ( x -2)

2y - 2 = x- 2

y = \frac{x}{2}

Line 2 passes through A (2,1) and (0,y)

slope (m2) =\frac{y-1}{-2}

Line 1 and Line 2  are perpendicular

m1*m2 = -1

\frac{1}{2}  * \frac{y-1}{-2} = -1

y-1 = 4

y = 5

slope = -2

Equation of Line 2

Y-1 = -2(x-2)

y -1 = -2x +4

2x +y = 5
