Hi, the answer is 180, because 60 *3 = 180
Answer:
see the explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
x ----> the number of males on the elevator
y ----> the number of females on the elevator
we know that
The inequality that represent this situation is

The solution of the inequality is the shaded area below the solid line 
The slope of the solid line is negative
The y-intercept of the solid line is (0,18)
The x-intercept of the solid line is (15,0)
see the attached figure
The solution is the triangular shaded area
The maximum number of females is 18 (when the number of males is zero)
The maximum number of males is 15 (when the number of females is zero)
First you gave to get the denominators all the same then you can answer the questions
A=8 and PQ=28.
the way I solved the problem is attached. hope this helped.
