Answer:
There were 7 small boxes and 14 large boxes shipped.
Step-by-step explanation:
This problem may be solved by a system of equations:
I am going to say that:
x is the number of small boxes used
y is the number of large boxes used
There were twice as many large boxes shipped as small boxes shipped
This means that y = 2x
Each small box of paper weighs 45 pounds and each large box of paper weighs 80 pounds. The total weight of all boxes was 1435 pounds.
This means that 45x + 80y =1435
So we have to solve the following system:
y=2x
45x + 80y =1435
45x + 80 (2x) = 1435
205x = 1435
x= 1435/205
x=7
y=2x= 2(7) = 14
There were 7 small boxes and 14 large boxes shipped.
Hello! I would love to help!
Let's start with this part of the equation: "the sum of a number and seven"
Alright. We know that x represents an unknown number. Do you see a part of the equation that could translate to "an unknown number?"
I see "a number." So let's fill X in for "a number.
Alright. So now we have "the sum of x and 7."
Next, let's remember that sum means adding. So we just need to 7 to x
X+7
So, now instead of "the sum of a number and 7" we have x+7.
Alright. Now we just have to do the "twice." When it is asking for "twice", it is asking us to multiply our answer by two. But we need to multiply both x and 7. The best way to do that is to put our "x+7" in parenthesis and put a two outside.
2(x+7)
That's your answer! 2(x+7)
Hope this helped! Comment if you have any questions!
Start weight- 8.03
week 1 - 8.8
week 2 - 8.13
week 3 - 9.03
week 4 - 9.08
So, the Omar should weigh 9 pounds 8 ounces by the end of 4 weeks.
I hope this helped!
