A delivery of 5 large boxes and 3 small boxes has a total mass of 137 kilograms. A delivery of 2 large boxes and 6 small boxes has a total mass of 128 kilograms. What is the mass of each type of box?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Large boxes are 18.25 kg

Small boxes are 15.25 kg

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a system of equations. You need to set up each equation first.

I am assigning x to be big boxes and y to be small boxes.

5x + 3y = 137

2x + 6y = 128

To solve, you will need to eliminate a variable. That means you will have to multiply one of the equations by a number to make it so a variable will be eliminated. I will be multiplying the top equation by -2.

-2 ( 5x + 3y = 137)

    2x + 6y = 128

Distribute the -2 to everything in the parentheses in the first equation.

-10x - 6y = -274

2x + 6y = 128

Notice the 6y will go away because -6y + 6y = 0. Now add the equations together. The remaining equation is:

-8x = -146

Solve for x by dividing by -8.

x = 18.25

Now plug that into one of the original equations.

2(18.25) + 6y = 128.

36.5 + 6y = 128                Subtract 36.5 from each side

-36.5            -36.5

6y = 91.5                          Divide by 6 to solve

y = 15.25

x * y = 1

How is the answer 1? Please tell me why it is 1 and how to do the operation correctly.

Answers

Answer: Answer below.

Step-by-step explanation: If x is pi, and y is 1/pi, then multiplying x by y is 1; yes. So, for y, 1 is being divided by pi. The opposite of division is multiplication. If you multiply 1/pi by pi, the pi in the denominator cancels. Just how if it is 5x = 10, dividing by 5 cancels it on the left side, and gets you x = 2.

This is general for everything. If you multiply 2 by 1/2, you get 1. This is because dividing is also like multiplying by its reciprocal. 1/2's reciprocal is 2/1, and multiplying leaves you with 1. Go and use a calculator, it's correct. Actually, any problem a/b × b/a = 1.

Draw a line segment from (-7, -2) to (3, 8)

See the diagram below.

You do not have to draw the blue dashed line. It's there to show how the points reflect over.

=========================================================

Explanation:

The inverse will have us swap x and y. The point (x,y) becomes (y,x)

The endpoint (-2, -7) becomes (-7, -2)

Also (8,3) moves to (3, 8)

Visually, these points are being reflected over the line y = x to form the inverse. We only need to worry about the endpoints because 2 points is the minimum needed to form a straight line.

Check out the diagram below. The red segment is the inverse. The blue dashed line is the line y = x. You don't have to plot this line as it's just a visual tool to see what's going on. Your teacher likely will only want the red segment.

Since the original segment is parallel to y = x, the inverse is also parallel to the mirror line. All three lines are parallel.

the interest paid for borrowing qn amount of money for 3yrs at the rate of 4%is n108 find the amount of the money borrowed

Answers

The amount of the money borrowed is 864.941

So the amount of money over time can be given with an exponential function y=a(b)^x or more specifically y=a(1+r)^x   where r is the growth rate (interest rate)

So the equation can be written as

m=(1.04)^t

   Where m represents the amount of money over time, P represents the principal amount, and t represents time in years. Since we're given the amount of interest paid and not the total amount which includes the initial amount borrowed you have to subtract P from the equation. This will give us the equation that we'll use to find the initial amount

[tex]I=P(1.04)^t-P[/tex] where I represent the interest paid.

plug the values into the equation

[tex]108=P(1.04)^3-P\\P=864.941[/tex]

Therefore the amount of the money borrowed is 864.941.

Since 1 foot = 12 inches, and 13 inches exceeds that, add a foot to the previous 3 feet and subtract 12 from the 13 inches

Therefore: 6 yards 4 feet 1 inch

The manager of a home electronics store is considering re-pricing a new model of digital camera. At the current price of $680, the store sells about 70 cameras each month. Sales data from other stores indicate that for each $20 decrease in price, about 5 more cameras would be sold. The table shows some x and y values; where x is the number of price decreases and y is the revenue.

a) How many price decreases should the manager apply?
b) What price produces the maximum revenue?
c) What is the maximum revenue?

Answers

The reduction in price that will be applied is $200.

How to calculate price?

From the given information, the price function will be:

P - 680/(680 - 660) = (Q - 70)/(70 - 75)

P = -4Q + 960

Revenue will be:

= Price × Quantity

= (-4Q + 960)Q

= 4Q² + 960Q

Differentiating this will be Q = 120

Price will be:

= (-4 × 120) + 960

= 480

The reduced price will be:

= 680 - 480

= 200

The maximum revenue will be:

= 480 × 120

= 57600

In mathematics, an expression is defined as a set of numbers, variables, and mathematical operations formed according to rules dependent on the context.

If they sit 5 per bench, 2 benches are left empty, and one bench only has 4 students.

Total number of students = 5(x-1) - 10 +4

Now, the total number of students can be written as,

Answer: For the first box it is parallel, for the second box it is the corresponding angles theorem, the third is NYM, and the last one is AA.

Step-by-step explanation: 1.) Since line NM has an arrow on it's line and XZ has an arrow on it's line, that means that those two line are parallel to each other. 2.) Since both triangle contain the same transversal line (NY) and the corresponding angles theorem states that if a transversal intersects parallel lines, the corresponding angles are congruent. From this we can conclude that this means that the angle <YXZ has is congruent to the angle <YNM. Therefore we use the corresponding angles theorem. 3.) Answer 2 basically answers box number three but since we concluded that Angles of <YXZ and <YNM are both congruent <NYM would be your answer its just flipped. 4.) We use the AA theorem, because the AA theorem states that if an angle or angle(s) of one triangle is congruent to another angle/angle(s) of another triangle, then the triangles are similar (congruent). Therefore we would use the AA theorem.

C. f(x) = 2(5)^x

D. f(x) = 2(0.5)^x

Answers

The exponential model best represents the data is B. f(x) = 5(0.2)^x

How to determine the exponential model?

From the table of values, we have the following points:

(x, y) = (0,5) and (1,1)

An exponential model is represented as:

y = ab^x

Substitute (x, y) = (0,5)

5 = ab^0

5 = a

This gives

a = 5

So, we have:

y = 5b^x

Substitute (x, y) = (1,1)

1 = 5b^1

This gives

5b = 1

Divide by 5

b = 0.2

Substitute b = 0.2 in y = 5b^x

y = 5(0.2)^x

Hence, the exponential model best represents the data is B. f(x) = 5(0.2)^x
