Given:

An elevator has a weight limit of less than 900 pounds.

A student weighing 95 pounds get on the elevator.

To find:

The inequality to represent the remaining weight, x, that can be added.

Solution:

Let x be the remaining weight that can be added.

A student weighing 95 pounds get on the elevator.

So, total weight on the elevator = x+95 pounds.

An elevator has a weight limit of less than 900 pounds.  It means, total weight on elevator must be less than 900 pounds.

x+95

Subtracting 95 from both sides.

x

x

It means, the remaining weight that can be added is less than 805 pounds.

Therefore, the required inequality is x.

HELP...The volume of a rectangular prism is 36x^6y^8. The length of the prism is 4x^3y^5, and the width of the prism is 3xy^2. W
Margaret [11]

Answer:

H = 3x^2y

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

V = 36x&^6y^8

L = 4x^3y^5

W = 3xy^2

Required

Find the height of the prism

Volume (V) is calculated as:

V =LWH

Substitute values for V, L and W

36x^6y^8 =4x^3y^5 * 3xy^2 * H

Make H the subject

H = \frac{36x^6y^8}{4x^3y^5 * 3xy^2}

H = \frac{36x^6y^8}{4*3x^3*x*y^5y^2}

H = \frac{36x^6y^8}{12x^4*y^7}

Divide:

H = 3x^{6-4}y^{8-7}

H = 3x^2y

The height of the prism is: 3x^2y
