A hot air balloon can hold 350 lbs of weight. Tristan wants to ride up in the hot air balloon. The pilot of the balloon weighs 200 lbs. If Tristan weighs 2300
ounces, can he ride in the hot air balloon with the pilot? Why or why not?

Step-by-step explanation:

First, convert 2,300 ounces into pounds.

2,300oz. - 143.75 pounds

You then need to add the pounds from the pilot and Tristan's.

143.75 + 200 = 343.75

If the hot air balloon can hold 350lbs, then both Tristan and the pilot can ride it together. The reason why they can ride it together is because 343.75 pounds is less than what the hot air balloon can originally hold, which is 350lbs.

I hope I helped teehee- ^^ :P

Since the retirement portfolio is for 25 years and she is about 17 yeas to go before retirement, allotting a big percentage on high risk would mean that it would pay higher when she retires. Her financial does not have to worry about possible challenges in the future since the portfolio is only for 25 years. So, the answer should be something like this:
70% high-risk; 25% medium-risk; 5% low-risk
