Michael is planning to ride a horse to a campsite. The sum of Michael’s weight and the combined weight of his camping supplies m
ust be at most 20% of the weight of the horse.’Michael weighs 177 pounds, and the horse weighs 1000 pounds. What are the possible weights of the camping supplies?
177 + s < = 0.20(1000)....where s = weight of the camping supplies 177 + s < = 200 s < = 200 - 177 s < = 23 <== so, at most, his camping supplies can weigh 23 lbs
