HELP??????????????????????????/???????????????????????????????????????????????????/??????????A fruit company delivers its fruit in two types of boxes: large and small. A delivery of 3 large boxes and 5 small boxes has a total weight of 86 kilograms. A delivery of 6 large boxes and 2 small boxes has a total weight of 122 kilograms. How much does each type of box weigh?


Respuesta :

L = 21.7 kg. S= 4.2 kg

Step-by-step explanation:

3L+5S=86. L=(86-5s)/3

6L+2S=122.

2(86-5S) + 2S = 122

172 - 10 S +2S = 122

172 - 12S = 122

-12S= -50. S= 4.2

L = (86-(5*4.2))/3 = 21.7
