Answer:

720 apples

Step-by-step explanation:

Let A be the number of apples in the small pack.

QTY for Small Cartons is 15A,

QTY for Big Cartons is 20(A+15) = 20A+300

From small cartons makes 25% or 1/4 of total, means the big carton makes 75% of total, or 3/4 of total. This also means the qty in big carton is 3 times of small carton

20A+300 = 3X (15A)= 45A

300 = 25A

A=12

Altogether = 15A+(20A+300) = 720 Apples

5. Find the value of x that makes BC || DE.
s344n2d4d5 [400]

Answer:

x = -7

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the value of x, you need to set up a proportion:

\frac{x-2}{15} = \frac{x-1}{18}

Then cross multiply:

15x - 15 = 18x + 36

Then subtract 15x from both sides:

-15 = 3x + 36

Subtract 36 from both sides:

-51 = 3x

Finally, divide both sides by 3:

x = -7

If PQ=RS, which of the following must be true?
maw [93]

<u>Answer:</u>

If PQ=RS then PQ and RS have the same length. Hence option D is correct

<u>Solution:</u>

Given that, pq = rs  

And, we have to find which of the given options are true.

<u><em>a) pq and rs form a straight angle </em></u>

We can’t decide the angle in between pq and rs just by the statement pq = rs.

So this statement is false.

<u><em>b) pq and rs form a zero angle. </em></u>

We can’t decide the angle in between pq and rs just by the statement pq = rs.

So this statement is false.

<u><em>c) pq and rs are same segment. </em></u>

If two things equal then there is no condition that both represents a single item.

So this statement is false.

<u><em>d) pq and rs have the same length </em></u>

As given that pq = rs, we can say that they will have the same length  

Hence, option d is true.
