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.

1 out of 6 chances
Explanation: there’s 6 sides of a cube if you mark them 1-6 there only one side that you can land on that is greater then 5 which is six also if you need it in percent it’s 16.6%
X > 10 Because if you remove the parenthesis and distribute 4 through the parentheses - 8x + 8 + 12. Then you add 8 and 12 which equals 20. Then you move the constant to the right-hand side and change its sign. You calculate 100 - 20 which give you 80 and divide then which gives you 10.
Hopefully this helps! <3
Decreased by 25%
find 25% of 12 and decrease 12 by it
percent means parts out of 100
25%=25/100=1/4
'of' means multiply
25% of 12=1/4 times 12=3
decrease 12 by 3
12-3=9
answer is 9
