Complete Question:

A freight elevator has a maximum weight limit of 3,200 pounds. The elevator is being loaded with crates that each weigh 300 pounds. The forklift being used to move the boxes weighs 175% as much as one crate. How many crates can fit onto the freight elevator? Select all that apply

A.6

B.8

C.10

D.12

Solution:

The forklift is 175% as one crate (that weight 300 lbs).

175% = 175/100 = 1.75

1.75*300 = 525 lb

Forklift weights 525 pounds

So, remaining weight limit on the elevator for the crates would be:

3200 - 525 = 2675 lb

How many 300 lb crate can that hold??

2675/300 = 8.92 crates MAX

So, that practically means we can load 8 crates at max.

From the answer choices we can load "6" and "8" crates.

Answer choices A and B are right.

d 25 pi/6

step-by-step explanation:

the diameter is 10 inches

the radius is 1/2 of the diameter or 5 inches

the area of the circle is

a = pi r^2

  = pi 5^2

  = 25 pi

the slice is 60 degrees of the entire circle.

60 degrees out of 360   60/360 = 1/6

the area of the slice is 1/6 of the circle

a slice = 1/6 a circle

a slice = 1/6 * 25 pi
