Answer:

p ≤ 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following :

Maximum weight elevator can hold ≤ 1800

Weight of delivery person and packages = 520 pounds

Average weight of a person = 160 pounds

Inequality to show how many additional people elevator can hold?

(weight of delivery person and packages + average weight of persons * number of persons) ≤ 1800

Let p = number of persons

(520 + 160p) ≤ 1800

160p ≤ 1800 - 520

160p ≤ 1280

p ≤ 1280 / 160

p ≤ 8

Factor the expression below why explain why.<br><br> 54. <br> -2h^2 + 4h + 70
Helen [10]
A quadratic has the form ax^2+bx+c

To factor a quadratic you want to find two values, j and k, which satisfy two conditions...

j*k=a*c  and j+k=b

In this case ac=-140 and b=4.

The only values possible are j=14 and k=-10

so jk=-140 and j+k=4 which are the conditions we needed to satisfy...

Now you remove the linear, or "b term", from the original equation and replace it with jx and kx... and in this case you will have:

-2h^2-14h+10h+70  now you can factor out the greatest common factor from the first pair of terms and the second pair of terms...

-2h(h+7)+10(h+7)  which is equal to

(-2h+10)(h+7)  and you can factor the first term again if you wish...

-2(h-5)(h+7)

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Angle PRS and RPQ are right angles. Segment SP is also congruent to segment QR. This means that triangle PRS and RPQ are right angle triangles.

Segment SP and segment QR are the longest sides and thus, the hypotenuse of each triangle. It means that the hypotenuse are congruent

The hypotenuse leg theorem states that any two right triangles are congruent if they have a congruent hypotenuse and a corresponding congruent leg. Therefore,

Angle PSR is congruent to angle RPQ and

Triangle PSR is congruent to triangle RPQ

Can. Y’all help with this
solmaris [256]

Answer:

Your Answer Would be the 3rd Option.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Initial Value is : 4. All you have to do is look for when the x = 0

ROC: 1/2. Minutes =x, Inches= Y. To find ROC, take

Y2 - Y1

----------

X2 - Y1

Replacing those with numbers:

5 - 4

-------

2 - 0

Your ROC is 1/2 .

Equation:

y= 1/2x + 4

Know that The 4 is the initial value, so it's always in that spot. Your ROC is always Next to the x, which also means it's the slope.

poizon [28]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

all 3 angles of a triangle must equal 180 degrees, so if it tell you that there is a 68 degree angle, and a 90 degree angle(because if the right angle), then the last angle must be 22, because 180-(68+90)=22
