So there would be two equations

120=x+y

and

4850=45x+35y

We can now solve for each variable

y=120-x

plug it into the second equation...

4850=45x+35(120-x)

4850=45x+4200-35x

650=10x

x=65

Now plug in X

y=120-65

y=55

They are carrying 65 big boxes and 55 small boxes.

Check

---------

120=y+x

120=55+65

120=120

The FDA recommends that women who are pregnant avoid eating more than three 6.00 oz servings of bluefish per month because of th
kirza4 [7]

Answer:

5,562 x 10^{-6}

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Firts, we need to find the maximum recommended amount of bluefish per month. Since the FDA recommends <em>3 servings of 6.00 oz each</em>, the maximum amount would be:

the maximum amount of bluefish per month = 3 * 6.00 oz = 18.00 oz

  • Since bluefish contains <em>0.309 ppm of mercury per 1x10^{6} oz of fis</em>h, then:

0.309 oz mercury --------> 1x10^{6} oz of fish

How many  (y)      --------> 18.00 oz of fish

y = \frac{18.00 oz of fish * 0.309 oz of mercury}{1 x 10^{6} oz of fish }  = 0.000005562 = 5.562 x 10^{-6} oz mercury

Solve the following equation for x: 6x-16=14
Ivenika [448]

To solve the equation for x, first, we add 16 from both sides of the equation:

\begin{gathered} 6x-16+16=14+16, \\ 6x=30. \end{gathered}

Now, we divide by 6:

\frac{6x}{6}=\frac{30}{6}.

Finally, we get that:

x=5.

Answer:

x=5.

When working with inequalities what do you do when its x squared &gt; 16 and vice versa does the sign flip.
S_A_V [24]

Answer:

x4

\{x\in \mathbb{R}|  \:\left(-\infty \:,\:-4\right)\cup \left(4,\:\infty \:\right)    \}

Step-by-step explanation:

x^2>16

x\sqrt{16}

x4

The interval notation will be:

\{x\in \mathbb{R}|  \:\left(-\infty \:,\:-4\right)\cup \left(4,\:\infty \:\right)    \}

The contrary,

x^2

is -4
