Question

two types of boxes A, B are to be placed in a truck having capacity of 10 tons.When 150 boxes of typeA and 100 t type of British are loaded in a truck, it weighs 10 tons.When. But when 260 boxes of type A are loaded in a truck, it can stil accommodate 40 boxes of type B, so that it is fully loaded.Find the weight of each type of box

Answer 1

let there are x weight of A type boxes and y weight of B type boxes
according to the condition
150x+100y =10
by cancelling 0, we get
15x+10y = 1 --(1)

according to the 2 condition
200x+40y =10
by cancelling 0, we get
20x +4y =1 ---(2)
multiply eq 1 by 2 and multiply eq 2 by 5
30x +20y=2 --(3)
100x + 20y = 5 --(4)
subtract eq 3 from 4
you will get ans
I hope u will get help from this solution ✌
