8 pencils = 1 package
28 children need pencils
Each child gets 4 pencils
28x4 = 112 (pencils needed)
112/8 = 14 packages needed.
Answer:
there is no greatest load
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x and y represent the load capacities of my truck and my neighbor's truck, respectively. We are given two relations:
x ≥ y +600 . . . . . my truck can carry at least 600 pounds more
x ≤ (1/3)(4y) . . . . . my truck carries no more than all 4 of hers
Combining these two inequalities, we have ...
4/3y ≥ x ≥ y +600
1/3y ≥ 600 . . . . . . . subtract y
y ≥ 1800 . . . . . . . . multiply by 3
My truck's capacity is greater than 1800 +600 = 2400 pounds. This is a lower limit. The question asks for an <em>upper limit</em>. The given conditions do not place any upper limit on truck capacity.
