He an put 20 of the additional boxes in the elevator. 10*37.5= 137.5
450-137.5=312.5      312.5/15.5=20.12903226- round down to 20.

Check: 20*15.5=310 & 10*37.5= 137.5 so 137.5+310=447.5- He cannot carry anything else because then it would go over.

So he can put 20 additional boxes+ the original 10 boxes.

(Also you may need to know John's weight- you did not include it. This would affect the number of additional boxes that can be put on.)

Hope this helps!

Y = mx + b is the slope-intercept form of the equation of a line,
where m = slope, and b = y-intercept.

In problems 1 and 3, your equations are written in the y= mx + b form, so you can read the slope and y-intercept directly.

1.
m = -5/2
b = -5

3.
m = -1
b = 3

5.
For problem 5, you need to solve for y to put the equation
in y = mx + b form. Then you can read m and b just like we did
for problems 1 and 3.

4x + 16y = 8

16y = -4x + 8

y = -4/16 x - 8/16

y = -1/4 x - 1/2

m = -1/4

b = -1/2

After I add up all the numbers and divide them what do I do after?
Novosadov [1.4K]
When finding the mean you add up the numbers that are needed to find the mean and divide them by the amount of numbers you added. For example question 5 you will add 58+58+62+55+49+48 which will equal 330 and then divide it by 6 because there are 6 numbers which is 55.
