Lena drives a truck for a soft drink company. Her truck is filled with 15-ounce cans and 70-ounce bottles. Let c be the number of 15-ounce cans the truck iscarrying, and let b be the number of 70-ounce bottles.The truck must be carrying less than 7000 pounds (112,000 ounces). Using the values and variables given, write an inequality describing this.Iロニロロ<ロロコロOSO 0208х5 ?

Answer 1

Given:

Amount of can the truck has = 15 ounce cans

Amount of bottles = 70 ounce bottles.

Let c represent the number of 15-ounce cans the truck is carrying

Let b represent the number of 70-ounce bottles the truck is carrying

Given that the truck must be carrying less than 7000 pounds, let's write an inequality that describes this situation.

Where:

7000 pounds = 112,000 ounces

This means the total weight the truck must carry should be less than 7000 pounds or 112,000 ounces

To write the inequality, we have:

15c + 70b < 112000

ANSWER:

15c + 70b < 112000
