What is the equation to model the situation. 135+650=785

Answer 1

You given the equation but not the situation.

Perhaps you want to create a situation that requires that equation for the solution.

Here is an example:

The heavy crate weights 110 pounds more than 4 times the other.

THe lighter crate weighs 135 pounds.

What is the combined weight of both crates?

Solution:

THe lighter crate weighs 135 pounds.

The heavy crate weights 4 * 135 + 110 = 540 + 110 = 650 pounds.

Their combined weight is 135 +650 = 785 pounds.

Now you can determine if the forklift or hand truck is capable of lifting

them

Otherwise,
