Answer:

The maximum number of 76-pound boxes that can be loaded in the elevator is:

  • <u>26 boxes</u>.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the maximum lift capacity is 2000 pounds and each box is identical (meaning there are no heavier or lighter boxes) than 76 pounds, the number of boxes can be identified by the following equation:

  • The maximum number of boxes = maximum lift capacity / weight per box.

Whereby replacing the values we get:

  • Maximum number of boxes = 2000 pounds / 76 pounds
  • <u>Maximum number of boxes = 26.3158 boxes</u>

Since the boxes are represented by integers, <u>the maximum number of boxes that can be loaded into the elevator at one time is 26</u>.

juin [17]

Answer:

The farmer bought 36 pigs in all.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a farmer bought a number of pigs for $ 160, but, however, 8 of them died before he could sell the rest at a profit of 6 per pig, and his total profit was $ 8, to determine how many pigs did he originally buy the following calculation must be performed:

160 + 8 = 168

168/6 = 28

28 + 8 = 36

Thus, the farmer bought 36 pigs in all.

What is 2/5% of 820?<br><br> 1.8<br><br> 2.05<br><br> 2.88<br><br> 3.28
Margarita [4]

Answer:

D) 3.28

Step-by-step explanation:

820/x=100/2.5

(820/x)*x=(100/2.5)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x

820=40*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (40) to get x

820/40=x

20.5=x

x=20.5

now we have:

2.5% of 820=20.5
