1 answer:
Answer:
12
Step-by-step explanation:
The area of a triangle is calculated with the following formula:
(b: base, h: height (or legs))
We can use this formula to find the length of the other leg:
30 = multiply both sides with 2 to get rid of fraction
60 = b*h one of the leg's length is given as 5 so
60 = 5*h divide both sides by 5
12 = h is the length of the missing leg.

Let 
be the number of boxes the team brings with them. Their weight combined with the boxes can't exceed the capacity of 1400. Assuming the elevator runs fine at that exact weight, you want to find the number of boxes, each of which contributes 40 pounds. This is given by the equation
Solving for, you have
So the team can bring *at most* 5 boxes at a time.
