Let c be the number of 15 ounce cans the truck is carrying, and let b be the number of 70 ounce bottles suppose the truck can carry 7000 pounds (112,000 ounces) using the values and variables given write an inequality

Answer 1

Answer:

15c+70b$\leq$112000

Step-by-step explanation:

Truck could carry 7000 pounds.

There are 15 ounce cans and 70 ounce bottles.

There are 'c' number of 15 ounce cans and 'b' is the number of 70 ounce bottles.

So, C number of cans can  carry 15C ounces

'b' number of bottles can carry 70b ounces

So, we can set up inequality as

15c+70b$\leq$112000
