Question 1091637: A delivery truck is transporting boxes of two sizes large and small the combined weight is 80 pounds the truck is transporting 65 large boxes and 70 small boxes if the truck is transporting 5325 in boes how much dose each type weigh? Answer by jorel1380(3719) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Let w be the weight of the large box. Then, the small box would weigh 80-n. So
65n+70(80-n)=5325
-5n=-275
n=55
80-n=25
