Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the width of the rectangle = x
As length is 5 inches longer than width, we have to add 5 to width
Length = x + 5
Perimeter of ractangle = 56 in
2* (length + width) = 56
2*( x + 5 + x) = 56
2* (2x + 5) = 56
Use distributive property: a*(b +c) =(a*b) + (a * c)
2*2x + 2*5 = 56
4x + 10 = 56
Subtract 10 from both sides
4x = 56- 10
4x = 46
Divide both sides by 4
x = 46/4
x = 11.5
Width = 11.5 in
length = 11.5 + 5
= 16.5 in
Well he and the cart together weigh: 210+95=305.
The weight left for boxes is: 4,000-305=3,695.
Total weight of boxes is: 50·275=13,750.
Divide the weight of boxes by how much is left for the elevator: 13,750/3,695=3.72
Since 3.72 is more than 3 he would have to make 4 trips to safely do so :)
