Each truck weighs five tons.
1st truck: n
2nd truck: n + 2
3rd truck: n + 4
4th truck: n + 6
n + n + 2 + n + 4 + n + 6 = 32
4n + 12 = 32
- 12 - 12
--------------------
4n = 20
---- ------
4 4
n = 5
Answer:
the answer to this question is 11
Answer: B: 11 and 12
Step-by-step explanation:
- An integer is simply a whole number
- So consecutive integers are simply whole numbers that follow each other (ex: 1, 2, 3)
- The square root of 125 (in decimals) is 11.1803398875, meaning it is higher than 11 but less than 12
- So 11.1803398875 falls between 11 and 12, making the answer B

Answer:
(x, y) ≈ (1.1642, 3.3930) and (3.4358, -0.39297)
Step-by-step explanation:
Solve the first equation for y, then substitute into the second.
5x +4/y = 7
4/y = 7 -5x
4/(7 -5x) = y
Then the second equation becomes ...
4x +x/(4/(7 -5x)) = 5
4x +x(7 -5x)/4 = 5
16x +7x -5x^2 = 20 . . . . . multiply by 4
5x^2 -23x +20 = 0 . . . . . put in standard form
We can use the quadratic formula to solve this.
x = (23±√((-23)² -4(5)(20)))/(2(5)) = (23±√129)/10
x = 2.3 ±√1.29 ≈ {1.1642, 3.4358}
y = 4/(7 -5x) = {3.3930, -0.39297}
Solutions are (x, y) ≈ (1.1642, 3.3930) and (3.4358, -0.39297).
