Answer:

25 boxes.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the inequality:

190 + 60x ≤ 1740  where  x = the number of boxes of books.

60x  ≤  1740 - 190

60x   ≤  1550

x ≤ 25.83.

Answer:

25 boxes

Step-by-step explanation:

To get the amount of boxes of books that can be brought up, subtract the weight of the delivery person from the maximum capacity: 1740 - 190 = 1550 lbs left to fill by the boxes

To find the amount of books able to be brought up, divide the capacity left by the weight of each of the boxes: 1550/60 = 25.8 books able to be carried up, without exceeding, meaning that the delivery person can bring up 25 boxes of books without the service elevator collapsing

Hope this helps :)

The pond will be full by the end of the day in 93 days.

<h3>Linear system</h3>

It is a system of an equation in which the highest power of the variable is always 1. A one-dimension figure that has no width. It is a combination of infinite points side by side.

Given

The pond can hold 400 water liters.

y = 3.915(1.106)x is an expression.

<h3>To find </h3>

The pond will be full by the end of the day.

<h3>How many days it will take?</h3>

Let x be the day and y be the hold of water.

When pond can hold 400 liters of water the x will be

400 = 3.915×1.106x

400 = 4.33 x

    x = 92.37 ≈ 93

Thus, the pond will be full by the end of the day in 93 days.
