Question 1

A shipping container will be used to transport several 150-kilogram crates across the country by rail. The greatest weight that can be loaded into the container is 26500 kilograms. Other shipments weighing 12100 kilograms have already been loaded into the container. Which inequality can be used to determine x, the greatest number of 150-kilogram crates that can be loaded onto the shipping container?

Question 2

SOLUTION

Given the question in the image, the following are the solution steps to answer the question.

STEP 1: Write the given values

$\begin{gathered} \text{constant + Variable = Output} \\ \text{constant}=12100 \\ \text{Variable}=x \\ \text{Output}=\text{greatest value} \end{gathered}$

STEP 2: Get the inequality

$\begin{gathered} \text{ If }26500kg\text{ is the greatest value, this means that;} \\ \text{the addition of constant and variable must be less than or equal to 26500} \\ So\text{ we have;} \\ \\ 150x+12100\le26500 \end{gathered}$

Hence, the answer is:

$150x+12100\le26500$
