Three small shipping boxes and one large shipping box hold 64 pounds. A large shipping box minus a small shipping
box holds 32 pounds. When writing a system of equations to determine how many pounds each small box (x) and each
large box (y) holds, which statements are true?
A)
y + 3x = 64
y - x = 32
B)
y - 3x = 64
y + x = 32
3y - x = 64
y - x = 32
D)
(8. 40) is the solution to the system.
E)
(12, 10) is the solution to the system.

Answer:

y + 3x = 64

y - 3x = 32

(8,40) is the solution to the system

(Basically A & D)

Step-by-step explanation:

1 large + 3 small = 64 y+3x=64

1 large - 1 small = 32 y-x=32

(12,10) cannot be a solution because the small box (x) holds more than the large box (y).

Substitute (8,40): 40 + 3(8) = 64 and 40 - 8 =32
