Answer:

2,000 ≥ 821+x

Step-by-step explanation:

it is said that the maximum weight the elevator could hold is 2,000, so the weight in the elevator should be 2,000 or less then 2,000.

It is said that already 5 people are inside with a weight 821, in this case we only care about the weight

the inequality will look: 2,000 ≥ 821

now they asked us how much more weight can the elevator can hold

lets make (x) represent the extra weight

x= extra weight

the equation will be 2,000 ≥ 821+x

How do you factor 7+14
mote1985 [20]

You could factor a 7 out of 7 + 14 to get 7(1 + 2).

This would equal the same thing as 7 + 14, which is 21.

7 * 3 = 21.

21 can be factored like so:

1 * 21 = 21

3 * 7 = 21

Answer:

Jessica runs the fastest

Step-by-step explanation:

Parallel = same slope
y = -2/3x + b
Plug in point
15 = -2/3(-3) + b
15 = 2 + b, b = 13
