Convert "3/4 ton" into pounds.  Use the identity 2000 lb = 1 ton.
                                     2000 lb           1500 lb
Then       [(3/4) ton] * ---------------- = ----------------
                                        1 ton                 1

Now divide 1500 lb by 4 lb 14 oz.  Note that 4 lb 14 oz = 4 14/16 lb, or
4 7/8 lb, or 4.875 lb.

Then, divide 1500 lb by

4.875 lb 
------------ to determine the number of bricks the truck can safely carry.
 1 brick

This comes out to 1500/4.875 bricks, or approx. 307 bricks.

What is the slope of the line that passes through the points (7.-12) and (-9,36)?​
REY [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

m = slope where

m = rise / run

rise = y2 - y1  

run = x2 - x1

where  

the given point P1 = (7, -12)

and is in the form of (x1,y1)  

and

the given point P2 = (-9,36)  

is  in   the   form  of   (x2,y2)

then

m =  ( y2 - y1 ) / ( x2 - x1 )

m = ( 36 - (-12) ) / ( -9 -7 )

m = ( 36 + 12 ) /  ( - 16 )

m =  48 /  - 16

m = - 3

the slope is negative 3

slope = - 3

Can someone tell me the answer to this plz
Tpy6a [65]
M8 =43.
Reason:
134+ M8 =180(degrees). This is because angles on a straight line =180 (degrees)

180-134=M8
Therefore:
M<8 =180-134= 43 (degrees)

Hope this helps and makes sense.

How many garbage cans should be placed in each campground? Explain how you can use addition or multiplication to find the answer
Vikentia [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiplication

Ratio of Tables to garbage = 8:3

Small camp ground:

40 picnic tables and let x be the number of garbage cans

\frac{8}{3}=\frac{40}{x}\\\\\frac{8*5}{3*5}=\frac{40}{x}\\\\\frac{40}{15}=\frac{40}{x}\\\\

x = 15

Small campground with 40 picnic table needs 15 garbage cans

Large picnic ground:

120 picnic tables and let y be the number of garbage cans

\frac{8}{3}=\frac{120}{y}\\\\\frac{8*15}{3*15}=\frac{120}{y}\\\\\frac{120}{45}=\frac{120}{y}

y= 45

Big campground with 120 picnic table needs 45 garbage cans
