Ralphie uses a boat to move merchandise between two shipping ports. The boat can hold no more than 2,016 kilograms of merchandis
e. Ralphie already has 1,526 kilograms of merchandise loaded onto the boat and wants to load more boxes of merchandise that weigh 67 kilograms each. Which of the following inequalities could be used to solve for x, the number of boxes of merchandise that can still be loaded onto the boat? A. 67x - 1,526 < 2,016
B.67x < 1,526
C.67x + 1,526 < 2,016
D.67x < 2,016
The first equation will turn into -18x -6y = -18, and the second equation will turn into 14x + 6y = 18. The y terms will cancel out when you add the equations together.
