Answer:
23760 pounds
Step-by-step explanation:
396 passengers
60 pounds for each passenger
total pounds plane can carry=passengers × pounds
= 396×60
= 23760 pounds
....
Y = -5x -5
To check, we can insert 0 for y and -1 for x
0 ? (-5X-1) - 5
0 ? 5 - 5
0 = 0
So yes, the equation is correct
Since the ratio of mother to daughter is 4:1, the weight of the mother and daughter together is five times the weight of the daughter.
In fact, if the daughter weights
pound, the mother weights
pounds, and the total weight is
.
We know that this total is 185 pounds, so we have

So, the daughter weights 37 pounds.
