Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
- The freight elevator can hold a maximum weight of 3500 pounds
- The delivery man weighs 200 pounds
- Each carton weighs 48 pounds
Let the number of cartons he can safely put on the elevator at one time=n
Total weight of Carton=48n
Since the weight of the man and the cartons combined must not be more than 3500 pounds,
Therefore,an inequality that represents the situation is:
We can solve for n if required
The delivery man can safely carry 66 Cartons.
Answer:
0.027
Step-by-step explanation:
0.1×0.1×0.1=0.027----->2.7×10^-2
The answer is 72 grams of tea leaves. 6 divided by 24 = 0.25 grams of tea leaves per 1 ounce of fluid tea. 0.25 x 288 = 72 grams of tea leaves.
Answer:
-15/6
Step-by-step explanation:
If you look at the first number in each point, the x coordinate, you see the 2nd point is 6 forward from the 1st point. Now the 2nd number is the y coordinate, and you can see it goes down 15 from the 1st coordinate. So y/x is the slope.
Answer:
1001 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
A triangle is formed where the points are the balloon, boat 1 and boat 2. We know the height of the triangle and the respective angles of each boat, if we cross a line just at the height of the balloon, two rectangular triangles are formed and we can calculate the distance from the ship to that point of height, the sum of these two distances, would be the distance between the two balloons.
To calculate this distance, we apply tangent of the angle:
tan ° A = opposite / adjacent
opposite is the height and adjacent the distance we want to find:
d1 = opposite / tan ° A
d1 = 300 / tan 40
d1 = 300 / 0.8390
d1 = 357.56
now for the other distance:
d2 = opposite / tan ° B
d2 = 300 / tan 25
d2 = 300 / 0.4663
d2 = 643.36
In other words, the distance between the boats is:
357.56 + 643.36 = 1000.92
Approximately 1001 feet
