a fruit company delivers its fruit in two types of boxes : large and small. a delivery of 6 large boxes and 5 small boxes has a total weight of 145 kilograms. A delivery of 2 large boxes and 3 small boxes has a total weight of 57 kilograms. how much does each type of box weigh?

Weight of large box = 18.75 kg

Weight of small box = 6.5 kg

Step-by-step explanation:

a fruit company delivers its fruit in two types of boxes : large and small. a delivery of 6 large boxes and 5 small boxes has a total weight of 145 kilograms. A delivery of 2 large boxes and 3 small boxes has a total weight of 57 kilograms. how much does each type of box weigh?

Let

Weight of large box = x

Weight of small box = y

6x + 5y = 145 (1)

2x + 3y = 57 (2)

Multiply (2) by 3

6x + 9y = 171 (3)

6x + 5y = 145 (1)

Subtract (1) from (3)

9y - 5y = 171 - 145

4y = 26

y = 6.5 kg

Substitute y = 6.5 kg into (2)

2x + 3y = 57

2x + 3(6.5) = 57

2x + 19.5 = 57

2x = 57 - 19.5

2x = 37.5

x = 37.5/2

x = 18.75 kg

Weight of large box = 18.75 kg

Weight of small box = 6.5 kg

the answer is a beach is the best place to be
