Inequality: 100× + 5400 ≤ 27500
X ≤ 221
Explanation:
• As we're told, x is the quantity of 100 kg crates that can be loaded into the container
• The total weight of the crates is given by 100x Kg
• The weight of the other shipments already in the container is 5400 kg
• Since the total weight of the container cannot exceed 27500 kg, our inequality to solve for x is:
100x + 5400 ≤ 27500
100x < 22100
X ≤ 221
Thus, the shipping container can contain no more than 221 100 kg crates to not exceed
27500 kg.

Answer:

Inequality: 100x + 5400 ≤ 27500

x ≤ 221

Explanation:

  • As we're told, x is the quantity of 100 kg crates that can be loaded into the container
  • The total weight of the crates is given by 100x kg
  • The weight of the other shipments already in the container is 5400 kg
  • Since the total weight of the container cannot exceed 27500 kg, our inequality to solve for x is:

100x + 5400 ≤ 27500

100x ≤ 22100

x ≤ 221

Thus, the shipping container can contain no more than 221 100 kg crates to not exceed 27500 kg.
