Answer:
Whitney can bring <u>6 friends.</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
The reason why is this:
Whitney is bringing 400 pounds of things plus <u>her own body weight! </u>
400 + 165 = 565 pounds
Now we add on Whitneys freinds which is <u>165 (their body weight) + the 10 pounds of gear which equals 175 pounds. So each friend would be 175 pounds total weight. </u>
175 x 6 = 1,050 pounds
If we add on Whitneys total weight thats:
565 + 1,050 = 1,615
<u>Adding on another friend would be 1,790 pounds which would be over the weight limit for the vehicle. </u>
Hence, Whitney can bring along 6 friends for her birthday.

Do you have the equation needed to solve for x?
Distance traveled should be on y axis
hours should be on x axis
increments should be 5
