<u>Let's take this problem step-by-step</u>:
<u>Let's first set up some variables</u>:
- c: # of children
- a: # of adults
<u>Let's examine the information given:</u>
- Elevator can hold a maximum of 1500 pounds
⇒ average child is 75 pounds
⇒ average adult is 150 pounds
⇒<em> therefore</em>: 
- Elevator can fit no more than 14 people
⇒ <em>therefore</em>: 
<u>Let's graph the equations</u>:
⇒ look at the image attached
<u>The point at which the two graphs intersect:</u>
⇒ <em>is the solution that represents the amount of children and adults and </em>
<em> their combine weight</em>
<em />
<u><em>With the horizontal axis being the # of children and vertical axis being the # of adults</em></u><em>:</em>
<em> ⇒ the </em><em>solution is 8 children and 6 adults</em>
<em></em>
<u>Answer: 8 children and 6 adults</u>
<u></u>
Hope that helped!

Answer:
Susan makes 5 fruit cups
each fruit cup has 5 strawberries and 3 kiwis
so the number of strawberries used is - 5 x 5 = 25 strawberries
and the number of kiwis used - 5 x 3 = 15 kiwis
so the total number of fruits - 25 + 15 = 40 fruits
Joanna uses 40 fruits to make 4 fruit cups
each cup she uses 8 strawberries
therefore total number of strawberries she uses - 8x 4 = 32 strawberries
she has 40 fruits in total and 32 of those are strawberries
the rest are kiwis
number of kiwis = 40 -32 = 8
8 kiwis are there and she has to make 4 cups
so for each cup number of kiwis = 8 / 4 = 2
so each cup has 2 kiwis
Step-by-step explanation:
A pint container because there are 2 cups in a pint, whereas there are 6 cups in 1/2 gallon and 4 cups in a quart.
Answer:
A.
Step-by-step explanation:
A.
In graph A no two points have the same x-coordinate. That makes it a function.
100% = Certain (no matter what.. it's going to happen)
75/100 = Likely (has a high chance of happening)
5/10 = Equally likely (can happen, or might not)
1/4 = Unlikely (might not happen)
0.0 = Impossible
hope this helps
