Answer:

A maximum of 16 boxes can be brought up at home.

Step-by-step explanation:

The delivery person weighs 160 lb and each box of books weigh 50 lb.

The maximum capacity of the elevator is 1000 lb.

Let the total boxes that can be brought be = b

We can define the equation in terms of inequality as:

160+50b\leq 1000

50b\leq 1000-160

50b\leq 840

b\leq 16.8

This means a maximum of 16 boxes can be brought up at home.

1000 = 160 + 50x
1000 - 160 = 840
840 = 50x
840/50 = 16.8
he can bring up 16.8 approx., but total boxes would be 16.

The equation 2/5d-1=3/5d-3 represents the number of dimes
ollegr [7]

Answer:

d=10

Step-by-step explanation: step 1: 2/5d-1 = 3/5d-3           add 3 to both sides

                                                                   +3          +3

                                            step 2:  2/5d+2 = 3/5d subtract 2/5d to both sides

                                                         -2/5d       -2/5d

                                            step 3:         2 =  1/5d       multiply 5/1 to both sides

                                                              * 5/1 = *5/1

                                                                10 = d

Eddie has saved up $45 to purchase a new camera from the local store. the sales tax in his county is 7% of the sticker price. wr
nikklg [1K]
X + 0.07x = 45; x = $42.06

if x is the basic price we must add 7% to this.  As a fraction 7% is 7/100.  As a decimal number this is 0.07, so the total to be paid is x + 0.07x (which can also be written as 1.07x).  This must equal $45, so 1.07x = 45; divide both sides by 1.07 to get:

$42.06 to the nearest penny.

Hope this helps!
