Horatio wants to ship a batch of 8 machine parts. The packaging for each part weighs 2 pounds. If each part weighs x pounds, which expression represents the total weight of the parts and their packaging? And if each part weighs 6 pounds, what will the total weight of the shipment be?

Sagot :

Here is what we know:
8 machine parts
each part = x pouunds
packaging for each part is 2 pounds so 16 pounds for packaging

If y=total weight wiith that information we can form this equation 
y=8x + 16

If each part equals 6 pounds the total shipment will be
y=8x+16
y=8(6) + 16
y= 48 + 16
y=64

Answer:

The total weight would be 64 pounds :)
