Answer: He can load at most 20 boxes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = Number of boxes.

Then, Weight of 75 boxes = 75x

Also, Weight of worker = 200 pounds

So total weight in elevator =  Weight of 75 boxes + Weight of worker

=  75x  +200

A warehouse elevator can hold 1750 pounds.

∴ 75x  +200 ≤ 1750

⇒ 75x ≤ 1750 -200

⇒ 75x ≤ 1550

⇒ x ≤ 20.67   [Divide both sides by 75]

It implies the maximum number of boxes it can hold = 20

Hence, the true statement is

He can load at most 20 boxes.

Aidan has 20 ft of fence with which to build a rectangular dog run. What is the maximum area he can enclose? Enter your answer i
irina1246 [14]
<h2>Maximum area is 25 m²</h2>

Explanation:

Let L be the length and W be the width.

Aidan has 20 ft of fence with which to build a rectangular dog run.

         Fencing = 2L + 2W  = 20 ft

                     L + W = 10

                      W = 10 - L

We need to find what is the largest area that can be enclosed.

     Area = Length x Width

      A = LW

       A = L x (10-L) = 10 L - L²

For maximum area differential is zero

So we have

      dA = 0

      10 - 2 L = 0

        L = 5 m

      W = 10 - 5 = 5 m

Area = 5 x 5 = 25 m²

Maximum area is 25 m²
