Please awnser correct i only get 1 shot at this! An elevator at a department store must carry fewer than 17 people at a time. An elevator operator is present in the elevator at all times. If x customers can travel in the elevator with the elevator operator, which inequality represents this situation?
A. x + 1 < 17
B. x > 18
C. x + 1< 16
D. x < 17
E. x + 1 > 18

I think it's C, but I would wait for more answers

Step-by-step explanation:

I thinks it's C because it says FEWER than 17

x representing the number of people and 1 being the operator

if it had said 17 or fewer then I think the answer would be Aso either A or C Haha

b mark me branliest thx

step-by-step explanation:

statement #3: proof- ang is congruent to ang ecd : angles are congruent.  

step-by-step explanation:

1: the missing angles in statement #3  

a.) acb  

reason- the reason why the answer is acb is because angle ecd and angle acb are both the same size *that's what the word congruent means this is really simple.  

2: the missing word in reason #3  

c.) vertical  

reason- the reason why the answer is vertical is because the angles in that diagram on figure 2 is slanted, which is vertical, and the e and a both lay on vertical lines. along with the other's, but e and a are the 2 main points you want to focus on. and c is kind of like your starting point, because c is for both angles, not just one.  

i hope that was and understanding.
