Answer:
x = the wight of the large box
y = the weight of the small box
A delivery of 3 large boxes and 2 small boxes has a total weight of 73 kilograms.
3x + 2y = 73
A delivery of 8 large boxes and 4 small boxes has a total weight of 177 kilograms.
8x + 4y = 177
by solving the system of equations
3x + 2y = 73
8x + 4y = 177
we find
x = 15.5 kg
y = 13.25 kg
the large box weights 15.5 kg.
the small box weights 13.25 kg.
Well, there are 3 feet in a yard. So, 3ft=1yrd. Multiply the length value by 3. You could also multiply 3 by the # of yards (or in this situation, 8) Is that good enough?
For the answer to the question above asking, w<span>hat was the price per can and the numbers of cans purchased each time?
let x be the number of cans he bought
the let us go to the 2nd statement which is t</span><span>he next time Ian purchased frozen orange juice, the price had increased by $0.10 per can and he bought 1 less can for the same total price.
The equation for this is .10(x-1) = 24
So now let's solve,
</span> .10(x-1) = 24
.10x - .10 = 24
.10x = 24+ .10
.10x = 24.10
Then divide both sides by .10
So the answer for this question is
241 cans of juice
The answer for 338 to the nearest ten is 340
