Question

A empty shipping box weighs 250 grams. The vid is then filled with T shirts. Each T shirt weighs 100 grams write a equation to represent the total weight of this situation

Answer 1

y=100x+250

Explanation:

Since the container empty weighs 250 grams that will be our constant and each t shirt weighing 100 grams will be our variable since we don't know the number of t shirts we can put that as our X.

Answer 2

Total weight = 100x + 250

Explanation:

Let x be the number of T-shirts in the box.

The total weight of the box is the sum of the weight of the empty box and the weight of the T-shirts. The weight of the T-shirts is the product of the number of T-shirts and the weight of each T-shirt.

Therefore, the equation to represent the total weight of the box is:

Total weight = weight of empty box + weight of T-shirts

Total weight = 250 + 100x

`This equation can be simplified to:

Total weight = 100x + 250
