The posted weight limit for a covered wooden bridge in Pennsylvania is 6000 pounds. A delivery truck that is carrying x identica
l boxes each weighing 14 pounds will pass over the bridge. If the combined weight of the empty delivery truck and its driver is 4500 pounds, what is the maximum possible value of x that will keep the combined weight of the truck, drives, and boxes below the bridge's posted weight limit?
If the driver and truck weigh 4500 and the bridge is can hold 6000 lbs. than there is room for 1500 more lbs. multiply 14 by 100 and get 1400, than multiply 14 by 7 and get 98. Add those to to get 1498. So the answer is x=107
