A shipping container will be used to transport several 100-kilogram crates across the country by rail. The greatest weight that can be loaded into the container is 26500 kilograms. Other shipments weighing 5300 kilograms have already been loaded into the container. Which inequality can be used to determine c, the greatest number of 100-kilogram crates that can be loaded onto the shipping container? Submit Answer 100c + 5300 26500 1000 + 5300 < 26500 26500 > 100(5300 + c) 26500 < 100(5300 + c)​

Respuesta :

Answer:100c+5300<26500

Step-by-step explanation:

We are required to find the greatest number of 100-kilogram crates that can be loaded onto the shipping container

The the greatest number of 100-kilogram crates that can be loaded onto the shipping container is 212 crates

Greatest weight that can be loaded = 26500 kilograms

Weight of each crate = 100 kilogram

Weight of other shipment = 5300 kilograms

let

c = the greatest number of 100-kilogram crates that can be loaded

The inequality is

26500 ≥ 5300 + 100c

26500 - 5300 ≥ 100c

21200 ≥ 100c

c ≥ 21200 / 100

c ≥ 212
