the maximum weight allowed per car on the slippery snake carnival ride is 189 pounds your friend weighs 70 pounds to be able to ride in the car together how much can you weigh or write and solve the inequality.
Let x be the weight of the other person who wants to ride in the car. Then the inequality is:
x + 70 ≤ 189
Subtracting 70 from both sides, we get:
x ≤ 119
Therefore, the other person can weigh no more than 119 pounds to be able to ride in the car together with a friend who weighs 70 pounds.
