Answer:
Part A) [tex]w+35 > 1,050[/tex]
Part B) [tex]w > 1,015\ pounds[/tex]
Part C) The graph in the attached figure
Step-by-step explanation:
Part A) Model with an inequality.
Let
w -----> the limit of weight in an elevator
we know that
The inequality that represent this situation is
[tex]w+35 > 1,050[/tex]
Part B)
Solve the inequality
[tex]w+35 > 1,050[/tex]
solve for w
Subtract 35 sides
[tex]w+35-35 > 1,050-35[/tex]
[tex]w > 1,015\ pounds[/tex]
All real numbers greater than 1,015 pounds
Part C) Where would the solution for the inequality be graphed on the number line?
[tex]w > 1,015\ pounds[/tex]
The solution is the interval -------> (1,015,∞)
In a number line is the shaded area at right of the number x=1.015 (open circle)
