Help me someone:(( a fruit company delivers its fruit in two types of boxes : large and small. a delivery of 6 large boxes and 5 small boxes has a total weight of 145 kilograms. A delivery of 2 large boxes and 3 small boxes has a total weight of 57 kilograms. how much does each type of box weigh?

Hope this helps!

Step-by-step explanation:

2L + 3S = 83

4L + 8S = 197

Multiplies the top equation by -2.

-4L + -6S = -166

4l  + 8S = 197

Adding them together...

2S = 31

S = 31/2 = 15.5

Plugging into the first equation:

 2L + 3S = 83

 2L + 3(15.5) = 83

2L + 46.5 = 83

2L = 83 - 46.5

2L = 36.5

L = 36.5/2 = 18.25

check:

2L + 3S = 2(18.25) + 3(15.5) = 36.5 + 46.5 = 83

4L + 8S = 4(18.25) + 8(15.5) = 73 + 124 = 197

The Large box weighs 18.25

The small box weighs 15.5
