A fruit company delivers its fruit in two types of boxes:large and small. A delivery of 9 large boxes and 7 small boxes has a total weight of 216 kilograms. A delivery of 3 large boxes and 5 small boxes has a total weight of 90 kilograms. How much does each type of boxes weigh?

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer:

The weight of the larger box is 18.75 kg

The weight of the small box is 6.75 kg

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x -----> the weight of large box

y ----> the weight of small box

we know that

The system of equations is equal to

9x+7y=216 -----> equation A

3x+5y=90 -----> equation B

Solve the system of equations by graphing

Remember that the solution is the intersection point both graphs

using a graphing tool

The solution is the point (18.75,6.75)

therefore

The weight of the larger box is 18.75 kg

The weight of the small box is 6.75 kg

A bathroom is 6 ft 5in long and 4 ft 3in wide what is the area of the bathroom in square feet. I need work with the answer

Answers

you just multiply the sides. 
Firstly, it's easier if you convert both measurements to inches.
so you'd do 6 x 12 = 72 , 72 + 5 = 77 inches
and 4 x 12 = 48 , 48 + 3 = 51 inches.

Then you multiply the sides, so:
77 x 51 = 3927 inches
then you divide by 12 to get how many feet and inches it is
3927/12 = 327 feet and 4 inches

Mason gave the waiter a $14.58 tip, which was 15 percent of the dinner bill. What was the amount of the dinner bill before he added the tip?A.$9.72
B.$21.87
C.$97.20
D.$218.70

Answers

Answer:

C. $97.20

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the dinner bill be $x.

The tip given to the waiter is $14.58.

Also, it is given that the tip is 15% of the tip.

Thus we get the relation 15% of x = 14.58

i.e. 0.15x = 14.58

i.e. x=(14.58)/(0.15)

i.e. x = 97.20

Hence, the amount of dinner bill before the tip is added is given by $97.20

the answer is :

the amount of the bill before the tip = 14.58 *100 /15 =  97.20 $
