A. We are given that each person weighs 150 lb, each gear
per person weighs 10 lb, and a total of 200 pounds of gear for the boat itself.
Since each person only carries one gear, therefore total
weight per person in 160 lb (weight of person + weight of gear).
So let us say that x is the number of persons, the
inequality equation is:
160 x + 200 ≤ 1200
B. There are three groups that wish to rent the boat.
> Solve the inequality equation when x = 4
160 (4) + 200 ≤ 1200
840 ≤ 1200 (TRUE)
> Solve the inequality equation when x = 5
160 (5) + 200 ≤ 1200
1000 ≤ 1200 (TRUE)
> Solve the inequality equation when x = 8
160 (8) + 200 ≤ 1200
1480 ≤ 1200 (FALSE)
So only the 4 people group and 5 people group can safely
run the boat.
C. Find the maximum number of people that may safely use
the boat, solve for x:
160 x + 200 ≤ 1200
160 x ≤ 1000
x ≤ 6.25
Therefore the maximum number of people that can safely
use the boat is 6 people.
Answer:
The first one
Step-by-step explanation:
The amplitude is usually the first number (for example, in this equation, the 3). Then you also know that the right or left shift depends on the addition or subtraction sign. Usually, the subtraction sign means to the right and the addition sign means to the left.
Answer:
3/1
Step-by-step explanation:
Well there's 6 sides on a dice and only 2 winning numbers. 6/2=3/1. You have a good chance of losing lol. Is this what you're looking for?

Answer:
0.6 tsp
Step-by-step explanation:
To triple a number, multiply it by 3.
1/5 tsp × 3 = 0.6 tsp
