A mail truck picks up two boxes of mail from the post office. The total weight of the boxes is 32 pounds. One box is 8 pounds heavier than the other box. How much does each box weight?

Respuesta :

Let x = box 1 and y = box 2

32 - 8 = 24
24 / 2 = 12
12 + 8 = 20

Box 1 = 12
Box 2 = 20

12 + 20 = 32 pounds
