We know that the load is 8713 lbs.

The total weight (truck + load) is 17200 lb.

Then, we can calculate the weight of the empty truck as:

\begin{gathered} L=8713 \\ W=L+T=17200 \\ \Rightarrow T=W-L \\ T=17200-L=17200-8713=8487 \\  \end{gathered}

Answer: the empty truck's weight is 8487 lb.

T: empty truck's weight

W: total weight (loaded truck's weight)

L: Load

The equation is:

T = W - L

Answer:

6

Step-by-step explanation:

The range of a data set is the numbers covered by the data. This means that the range is the difference between the minimum and maximum. The minimum is the smallest point, 2, and the maximum is the largest point, 8. Therefore, since 8-2=6, 6 must be the range.

Find the value for the variable expression p + 5 when p = 2.
sweet [91]
Replace all the variables with their values. In this case, we know the value of the variable p.

Now the expressions p + 5 becomes 2 + 5.

2 + 5 = 7

So, C. 7 is the answer.

Answer:

∠BIJ ≅ ∠CGJ and ∠BJI ≅ ∠CJG

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that the initial triangles are equal. Let us check which components remain within the final triangles as the same. The only such components are the angles B and C. We now know that we have to apply a triangle equality criterion.

The triangles BGH and CIH are equal since the have 2 common sides and the respective interior angles are equal. Then we have that BI=GC and also that the respective angles  B and C are equal. THen also HIJ=HGJ since they fill to 180 degrees with angles that are equal.

Hence by angle-side-angle the triangles BJI and CJG are equal.

∠BIJ ≅ ∠CGJ and ∠BJI ≅ ∠CJG
