Answer:

For 15,000 people, at least 1,250 rides are needed.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to write an inequality:

We have to multiply the maximum number of people per ride (12) by the number of rides (x).

That expression must be equal or higher than the number of people asked.(15000)

12 x ≥ 15000

Solving for x

x ≥ 15000/12

x ≥ 1,250

For 15,000 people, at least 1,250 rides are needed.

b)x = 1250

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: A thrill ride at an amusement park holds a maximum of 12 people per ride.

To find :

a. An inequality that you can use to find the least number of rides needed for 15,000 people.

b. Then find the least number of rides needed for 15,000 people.

Solution :

Let x represent the number of rides.

a) A ride holds maximum of 12 people = 12x

To find an inequality of the least number of rides needed for 15,000 people.

The equation is 12x = 15000

b) Find the least number of rides needed for 15,000 people.

  Solve the equation,

12x = 15000

x = \frac{15000}{12}

x = 1250

Answer is x=1250

Round 17.641 to the nearest whole number
vfiekz [6]
The nearest whole number would be 18 because the 6 is greater than 5. Anything greater than five, would most likely be rounded to the nearest whole number. Hope this helped!
