18. A storage facility has small units designed to hold 40 - 50 large boxes, a large box on average weighs 85 lbs. On average, if someone fills the container to capacity, how much will all the boxes they store weigh?
a. 3400 lbs
b. 4250 lbs
c. 4175 lbs
d. 3825 lbs

All the boxes in the store will weigh b. 4,250 lbs.

Step-by-step explanation:

Well, we know that the storage facility can hold a maximum of 50 large boxes, each weighing about 85 pounds.

85 x 50 = 4,250

Therefore, all the boxes in the store will weigh b. 4,250 lbs.

Hope this helps! :D

5=812a+9+3

step 1: simplify both sides of the equation.

5=812a+9+3

5=(812a)+(9+3)(combine like terms)

5=812a+12

5=812a+12

step 2: flip the equation.

812a+12=5

step 3: subtract 12 from both sides.

812a+12−12=5−12

812a=−7

step 4: divide both sides by 812.

812a /812 = -7/812

a= -1/116

so the answer is

a=   -1/116
