A fruit company delivers its fruit in two types of boxes: large and small. A delivery of 5 large boxes and 3 small boxes has a total weight of 95 kilograms. A delivery of 2 large boxes and 6 small boxes has a total weight of 68 kilograms. How much does each type of box weigh?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Each large box weighs 15.25 kg, and each small box weighs 6.25kg

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's define the variables:

A = weight of a large box.

B = weight of a small box.

We know that:

"A delivery of 5 large boxes and 3 small boxes has a total weight of 95 kilograms."

We can write this as:

5*A + 3*B = 95 kg

We also know that:

"A delivery of 2 large boxes and 6 small boxes has a total weight of 68 kilograms."

2*A + 6*B = 68kg

Then we have the system of equations:

5*A + 3*B = 95 kg

2*A + 6*B = 68kg

To solve this, the first step is to isolate one of the variables in one of the equations.

I will isolate the variable A in the second equation:

A = 68kg/2 - 6*B/2 = 34kg - 3*B

A = 34kg - 3*B

Now we can replace this in the first equation:

5*( 34kg - 3*B) + 3*B = 95 kg

170kg - 15*B + 3*B = 95 kg

170kg - 12*B = 95 kg

170kg - 95kg = 12*B

75kg = 12*B

75kg/12 = B = 6.25kg.

Now we can replace this on the equation A = 34kg - 3*B to find the value of A.

A = 34kg -3*6.25kg = 15.25kg

D. y=−9x+15

Answers

Answer: y = 10x+14  (choice A)

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

Work Shown:

y = 7(x+2)+3x

y = 7x+7*2+3x ..... distribute

y = 7x+14+3x

y = (7x+3x)+14

y = 10x+14

This is in y = mx+b form with m = 10 as the slope and b = 14 as the y intercept.

Answer: The answer is A (y=10x+14)

Approximate how many times greater Saturn's mass is than Mercury's.

A) 200,000
B) 2,000,000
C) 2,000
D) 20,000

Answers

Answer:

2000 times

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Sara:

[tex]Mercury = 3.302 * 10^{23[/tex]

[tex]Saturn = 5.685 * 10^{26[/tex]

Sam:

[tex]Mercury = 3.302 * 10^{29[/tex]

[tex]Saturn = 5.685 * 10^{32[/tex]

To determine the number of times, the mass of Saturn is greater than the mass of Mercury, we simply do the following:

[tex]Times = \frac{Saturn}{Mercury}[/tex]

Using Sara's measurement; this gives:

[tex]Times = \frac{5.685 * 10^{26}}{3.302 * 10^{23}}[/tex]

Apply law of indices

[tex]Times = \frac{5.685 * 10^{26-23}}{3.302}[/tex]

[tex]Times = \frac{5.685 * 10^3}{3.302}[/tex]

[tex]Times = 5.685/3.302 * 10^3[/tex]

[tex]Times = 1.72 * 10^3[/tex]

Approximate

[tex]Times = 2 * 10^3[/tex]

[tex]Times = 2000[/tex]

Answer:

Area =  201  1/4 yard^2

Or in decimal form: 201.25 yard^2

Step-by-step explanation:

First convert the mixed numbers into improper fractions or even decimal form  so it is easier to operate with them:

Base = 11  1/2 yards = 23/2 yards = 11.5 yards

Height = 17 1/2 yards =  35/2 yards = 17.5 yards

Use the formula for the area of a parallelogram:

Area = Base x Height

which in our case give:

Area = 23/2 x 35/2 = 805/4 yard^2 = 201  1/4 yard^2

Or in decimal form: 201.25 yard^2

D. tossing a coin 3 times

Answers

c. spinning a spinner

Option D is correct, tossing a coin 3 times is a simple event.

What is Probability?

It is a branch of mathematics that deals with the occurrence of a random event.

A simple event is a single outcome or result of an experiment or probability experiment.

In option D, the simple event is tossing a coin once and getting either a heads or a tails.

Since the event is repeated three times, there are a total of 8 possible outcomes (HHH, HHT, HTH, THH, TTH, THT, HTT, TTT).

However, each of these outcomes is made up of three simple events, which are the individual tosses of the coin.

In options A and B, there are multiple events happening, each of which has multiple possible outcomes, so they do not describe a simple event. In option C, there is only one event happening, but there are multiple possible outcomes of that event, so it also does not describe a simple event.

Hence, Option D is correct, tossing a coin 3 times is a simple event.

He calculated that the correlation between age and weight is 0.512. Describe the association.

Answer: There is a strong association between age and weight.

Step-by-step explanation:

The correlation coefficient (r) is used to describe the relationship between two variables.

[tex]-1\leq r\leq1[/tex]

If r lies between -1 to -0.5 or 0.5 to 1, then there is strong association between them.

Here,  Variables: Age and weight.

correlation coefficient = 0.512

That means, there is a strong association between age and weight.
