Given :

A freight elevator has a weight limit of 15,000 pounds.

Workers have loaded items weighing 2.6 tons onto the elevator.

To Find :

How many more pounds of freight can they load before reaching the weight limit.

Solution :

We know, 1 ton = 2000 pounds.

So, 2.6 ton = 2.6 × 2000 = 5200 pounds.

Now, number of pounds of freight can be loaded before reaching the weight limit is :

N = 15000 - 5200 pounds

N = 9800 pounds

Using the formula of P(1 + r)^n = x where p represents the initial value, r represents the rate and n represents the number of years and x is our final output. We want to find P so we have to make it the subject of the equation.

1 + 0.04 = 1.04
1.04^18 = 2.025816515
Then divide the total amount by this to get 185,110.5454
Therefore the answer is $185,110.55

Hope this helps! :)
