Answer: They cannot meet because two skew lines do not intersect each other.


Explanation:


Skew lines is a concept used in geometry to define lines that do not intersect each other but are not parallel.


In this case, the lines are not parallel because they lie in different planes, which in turn, do not intersect each other.


Therefore, runing the lnes in different planes and in different directions, they cannot not, in spite of not being parallel, intersect each other, which is called that the lines are skewed.


Donna's and Charlie's paths are an exelent illustration of what skew lines are: since Donna's and Charlie are in different levels, as long as each remains in parallel levels, their paths wiil not meet each other.

You need to haul a load of patio bricks to a job site. Each brick weighs 4 pounds 14 ounces. Truck can carry a 3/4 - ton load. H
Olin [163]

Answer:

339 bricks.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the weight of each brick and what the truck can support. Therefore what we must do is pass all to the same unit of measurement to calculate the quantity of bricks.

In this case we will pass everything to pounds.

We have that a 1 pound is 16 ounces, therefore 14 would be:

14 ounces * 1 pound / 16 ounces = 0.875 pounds

In addition we have that 1 ton is 2204.62 pounds, therefore 3/4 would be:

3/4 ton * 2204.62 pounds / 1 ton = 1653.467 pounds

Therefore, in total the brick weighs 4,875 pounds (4 + 0.875) and the truck can support 1653,467 pounds, the number of bricks would be:

1653.467 / 4.875 = 339.17

In other words, it can support about 339 bricks.
