Find the number of bags Keith needs to remove.
Answer to Problem 49STP
Number of pounds he has to remove is x pounds.
The inequality equation:
At least he has to remove 15 bags to meet the weight requirement of the truck.
Explanation of Solution
Given:
Keith has 40 − pound bags of mulch in his truck that weighs a total of 3600 pounds. His Owner`s Manual lists the truck`s capacity as at most 3000 pounds. How many bags does Keith need to remove in order to meet the weight requirement?
Concept Used:
Total weight of 40 − pound bags is 3600 pounds.
The truck capacity is at most 3000 pound.
Let the number of pound he has to remove in order to meet the weight requirement of the truck be x.
The inequality equation:
Calculation:
The inequality equation:
Solve for x, the minimum amount of weight he has to remove.
Weight of 1 bag is 40 pounds, and he has to remove minimum 600 pounds.
Number of bags he has to remove:
Thus, at least he has to remove 15 bags to meet the weight requirement of the truck.
