Answer:
a = c + 16
Step-by-step explanation:
a = b + 12
b = c + 4
Solve for b in the first equation.
a = b + 12
a - 12 = b
Put b as a - 12 in the second equation and solve for a.
a - 12 = c + 4
a = c + 4 + 12
a = c + 16

Rates Question
12 A highway had a landslide, where 3,000 cubic yards of material fell on the road, requiring 200 dump truck loads to clear. On another highway, a slide left 40,000 cubic yards on the road. How many dump truck loads would be needed to clear this slide?
3,000 yd3 = 200 dtl
40,000 yd3 × 200 dtl = 2,667 dtl
3, 000 yd3
The answer would be 15 but i am not sure what the problem says her answer is. if it is not 15 then her answer is wrong

Answer:
(6.2, 4.5)
Step-by-step explanation:
We want, for some point P, ...
(P -A) / (B -P) = 1 / 3
3(P -A) = (B - P) . . . . . multiply by 3
4P = B +3A . . . . . . . . add P+3A
P = (B +3A)/4 . . . . . . .divide by 4
Filling in the coordinate values, we can find P to be ...
P = ((2.3, 5.4) +3(7.5, 4.2))/4 = (2.3+22.5, 5.4+12.6)/4
P = (6.2, 4.5)
