Question

20 multiple choice 1 point a cargo airplane has a maximum takeoff weight of 19,000 kilograms. the airplane, crew, and fuel have a combined weight of 14,750 kilograms. the airplane will be loaded with n 125-kilogram cargo containers. what is the greatest value of n such that the airplane doesnt exceed its maximum takeoff weight? 152 28 118 34

Explanation:

Step1: Find available weight for cargo

The maximum takeoff weight is 19,000 kg, and the combined weight of airplane, crew, and fuel is 14,750 kg. So the available weight for cargo is \( 19000 - 14750 = 4250 \) kg.

Step2: Calculate maximum n

Each cargo container is 125 kg. So we solve \( 125n \leq 4250 \). Dividing both sides by 125: \( n \leq \frac{4250}{125} = 34 \).

Answer:

34 (the option with "34")
