Adelivery truck is transporting boxes of two sizes: large and small. the combined weight of a large box and a small box is 90 pounds. the truck is transporting 70 large boxes and 65 small boxes. if the truck is carrying a total of 6150 pounds in boxes, how much does each type of box weigh?

A small box weighs 30 lb; a large box weight 60 lb.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let L = weight of large box

Let S = weight of small box

"The combined weight of a large box and a small box is 90 pounds."

L + S = 90

"The truck is transporting 70 large boxes and 65 small boxes. If the truck is carrying a total of 6150 pounds in boxes"

L = 90 - S    Equation 1

The truck carries 65 small boxes and 65 large boxes and another 5 large boxes.

65(90) + 5(90 - S) = 6150   Equation 2

We use these two equations (Eq. 1 and Eq. 2) as a system of equations.

L = 90 - S

5850 + 450 - 5S = 6150

6300 - 5S = 6150

-5S = -150

S = 30

L = 90 - S = 90 - 30 = 60

S = 30; L = 60

0.16 or 16%

step-by-step explanation:

lets take a coin for example.

if you toss it twice, it has a 1/4 chance of landing on heads both times because 1/2 * 1/2 is 1/4.

with the cards, the chance of picking dog is 0.4. having two people pick one is like picking a card twice in a row. so 0.4 * 0.4 is 0.16, or 16%

2/3

step-by-step explanation:

the slope of a line is equal to the rise/run. in this case the line rises 2 units for every +3 units it moves
