19. Luggage on a certain airline is limited to 2 pieces per person. Together, the 2 pieces can weigh no more than 581 pounds.
If a passenger has one piece of luggage that weighs 325 pounds
what is the most the second piece can weigh?
The second piece can weigh
pounds.

The second piece can weigh 256 pounds at most.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to write an inequality with the information given:

The sum of the weight of each piece of Luggage must be less or equal to 581 pounds:

x + 325 ≤581

Where x is the second piece's weight.

Solving for x:

x ≤581 -325

x ≤ 256

The second piece can weigh 256 pounds at most.
