the maximum load of elevator is 480 pounds. Assuming that the average mass of student is 45 pounds, and m represents the number of students in the elevator, how many students can take the elevator at the same time

Respuesta :

we can use the equation 45m < 481

we can replace m to see where it caps.

and the cap is 10.

we can replace m to check our work

45(10) < 481

450 < 481

if you add another student, it would go over the limit.

hope this helps :D
