Heavy-duty 17941

The railroad workers carried five loads with five heavy trains than ten standard trains. What is the weight of a heavy-duty train if it is 2,200 t heavier than a standard train?

Correct answer:

t =  4400 t

Step-by-step explanation:


5t = 10n
t = 2200 + n

5·t = 10·n
t = 2200 + n

10n-5t = 0
n-t = -2200

Row 2 - 1/10 · Row 1 → Row 2
10n-5t = 0
-0.5t = -2200


t = -2200/-0.5 = 4400
n = 0+5t/10 = 0+5 · 4400/10 = 2200

n = 2200
t = 4400
