Question

An airplane has a maximum capacity of 118 passengers. The flight attendant has loaded 40 passengers. Which inequality represents the solution set that shows the number of passengers, p, that can still load the plane? A) p ≥ 68 B) p ≤ 68 C) p ≤ 78 D) p ≥ 78

Answer 1

c

Explanation:

If p = the number of passengers that can still load the plane, then p + 40 ≤ 118.

Therefore,

p + 40 ≤ 118

p + 40 − 40 ≤ 118 − 40

p ≤ 78

Answer 2

Its C

Explanation:

It is C because you can only load 78 more passengers
