Question

Calculator The elevators used to transport people to the top of a certain skyscraper building in a big city can hold up to 15 people. The building has a total of 73 elevators. Which inequality represents the maximum number of people, t, who can be transported to the top of the building at the same time, assuming all of the elevators are available? 2 < 1.095 2 < 1.095 I > 1,095 X > 1,095

Answer 1

For this case we know that the elevators used to transport people can hold 15 people. And we know that the total of elevators are 73. Then the total of people would be:

$T=15\cdot73=1095$

Then the best inequality for this case would be:

$t\leq1095$

With the the maximum number of people who can be transported to the top of the building at the same time.
