The total weight being carried is
   3545 +1758 +3697 = 9000 . . . . . pounds

Each ton is 2000 pounds, so together the trucks are carrying
   (9000 lb) × (1 t)/(2000 lb) = 4.5 t

Altogether, the 3 trucks are carrying 4.5 tons of topsoil.

<h3>Further explanatio n  </h3>

7 main quantities have been determined based on international standards, namely:  

  • 1. Length, meters (m)
  • 2. Time, second (s)
  • 3. Mass, kilograms (kg)
  • 4. Temperature, kelvin (K)
  • 5. Light intensity, candela (cd)
  • 6. Electric current, amperage (A)
  • 7. Amount of substance, mol (m)

Mass is one of the principal quantities, which is related to the matter in the object  (how much matter is in an object)

The main mass unit consists of 7 units of other than other units of mass such as quintals, tons, pounds, ounces:  

  • Kilogram, kg  
  • Hectogram, hg  
  • Decagram, dag  
  • gram, g  
  • Decigram, dg  
  • centigram, cg  
  • milligrams, mg  

Each unit descends then multiplied by 10, and if one unit increases then divided by 10  

Conversion of other mass units:  

  • mg milligrams = 10⁻³ g  
  • kg kilograms = 10³ g  
  • µg micrograms (mcg) = 10⁻⁶ g  
  • Mg megagrams (tons) = 10 g  
  • ng nanograms = 10⁻⁹ g  
  • Gg gigagram = 10⁹ g  
  • g picogram = 10⁻¹² g  

For US standart mass , the most common units are

  • Ounces
  • Pounds
  • Tons

The conversions between those units are :

1 pound = 16 ounces

1 ton = 2,200 pounds = 32,000 ounces

so :

1 pound = 0,000453592 ton

Three dump trucks are carrying topsoil

Truck A carries 3,545 lb, Truck 8 carries 1,758 lb, and Truck C carries 3,697 lb

Total mass from three dump trucks are :

= 3,545 + 1,758 + 3,697

= 9000 lb

Convert this to tons become :

= 9000 lb x 0.000453592

= 4.082328 ton

The slope, m, of a linear equation can be found using the formula m = StartFraction y 2 minus y a Over x 2 minus x 1 EndFraction
Otrada [13]

Answer:

Please check the explanation.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the points

  • (x₁, y₁)
  • (x₂, y₂)

Using the formula  to determine the slope between (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂) of the linear function

Slope = m =  [y₂ - y₁] /  [x₂ - x₁]

For example, let the points be

(x₁, y₁) = (1, 2)

(x₂, y₂) = (3, 4)

Determining the slope between

Slope = m =  [y₂ - y₁] /  [x₂ - x₁]

               =  [4 - 2] / [3 - 1]

               = 2 / 2

               = 1

Thus,

The slope of the line between the points (1, 2)  and (3, 4)  will be: m = 1

Answer:

24

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all to check whether a number is divisible by 3 or not. We have to add the numbers and if the result is divisible by 3. Our number is divisible by 3 (no doubt). So 72 (7+2=9 is divisible by 3) ÷3 = 24
