Answer 1

Hi Shanessa,

 

The total number of people that all the cars can hold is greater than 480 and less than 500 people.

 

Both the number of trolley cars and the number of people in each car must have two digits and be less than 30.

 

a possible number of trolley cars in the park = 22 and a possible number of people in each car= 22

 

 The water park has  visitors use to ride throughout the park= 22* 22= 484.
