Answer:

see the explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x ----> the number of males on the elevator

y ----> the number of females on the elevator

we know that

The inequality that represent this situation is

180x+150y\leq 2,700

The solution of the inequality is the shaded area below the solid line 180x+150y=2,700

The slope of the solid line is negative

The y-intercept of the solid line is (0,18)

The x-intercept of the solid line is (15,0)

see the attached figure

The solution is the triangular shaded area

The maximum number of females is 18 (when the number of males is zero)

The maximum number of males is 15 (when the number of females is zero)

FIND THE PERIMETER!!!!
luda_lava [24]
The perimeter of this shape is 92 in.

The perimeter of a shape is equal to the sum of all its side lengths. That means to find the perimeter, we need to add up the lengths of all the sides. 

35 in. + 35 in. + 11 in. + 11 in. =
=70 in. + 22 in. =
=92 in.

That means that the perimeter of this shape is 92 in.

Suppose a pizza must fit into a box with a base that is 12 inches wide.
mojhsa [17]
The area of the whole pizza must be at most 113.10 square inches in order to perfectly fit in the box. The values of r represent the half of the length of the pizza with respect to its center. In this case, the r must not exceed 6 inches (r ≤ 6 inches) in order to fit in the pizza box. On the other hand, the values of a represent the total area the pizza will occupy. In this case, the a must not exceed 113.10 square inches (a <span>≤ 113.10) </span>in order to house the pizza perfectly.
