Write an algebraic equation for the following problem and then solve it. Princess Margaret hospital received a shipment of 13-milligram doses of a medicine. Each 13-milligram package was repacked into two smaller doses of unequal size and labeled packet A and packet B. The hospital then used 13 doses of packet A and 11 doses of packet B in one week. The hospital used a total of 165 milligrams of the medicine during that week. How many milligrams of the medicine are contained in each A packet? In each B packet? Let x= the number of mg (milligrams) of the medicine contained in each A packet. Write an equation for the statement "The hospital used a total of 165 milligrams of the medicine during that week" in terms of x. = 165 (Use integers or decimals for any numbers in the expression.) The number of milligrams (mg) in each A packet is The number of mg in each B packet is (Simplify your answers.) Write an algebraic equation for the following problem and then solve it.
