Answer» Lets assume WEIGHT of each APPLE as 'x' and the weight of empty basket as 'y'.Also, 21kg 800 gm = 21800 gm && 8 kg 600 gm = 8600 gmAs per the given information60x + y = 21800 --->I8x + y = 8600 ----> IISubstracting II from I; gives you -60x - 8x + y - y = 21800 - 8600i.e. 52x = 13200i.e. 8x = 1650i.e. x = 253.84a)Substituting above in equation II gives...8*253.84 + y = 8600i.e. Weight of Empty Basket = y = 6569.23 gms = 6.57 Kgb)Weight of basket with 18 apples= 8*253.84 + 6569.23= 4569.23 + 6569.23= 11138.46 gms= 11.138 KgStep-by-step explanation:follow me |
