How many videos at most can she take with the remaining storage space?Choose 1 answer:(A) Eliana can take at most 3 videos.(B) Eliana can take at most 4 videos.(C) Eliana can take at most 12 videos.(D) Eliana can take at most 15 videos.
Q. Eliana takes photos and videos on her phone.Let P represent the number of photos and V represent the number of videos that Eliana can take using her storage space.15P+70V<400Eliana wants to take 12 photos. How many videos at most can she take with the remaining storage space?Choose 1 answer:(A) Eliana can take at most 3 videos.(B) Eliana can take at most 4 videos.(C) Eliana can take at most 12 videos.(D) Eliana can take at most 15 videos.
Substitute and simplify: Substitute the number of photos into the inequality.Given the inequality 15P + 70V < 400 and knowing that Eliana wants to take 12 photos, we substitute P with 12.15(12) + 70V < 400
Calculate storage space for photos: Perform the multiplication to find out how much storage space the photos will take.15×12=180So, 180 + 70V < 400
Calculate storage space for videos: Subtract the storage space used by the photos from the total storage space to find out how much storage is left for videos.400−180=220So, 70V < 220
Solve for V: Divide the inequality by 70 to solve for V.V < \frac{220}{70}V < 3.14285714
Round down to whole number: Since V must be a whole number (as Eliana cannot take a fraction of a video), we round down to the nearest whole number.Eliana can take at most 3 videos.
