A garbage truck and a dump truck each drive along a straight road between two points. Using the points on a map that the city cr

eated, the garbage truck will start at (–3, 4) and will stop at (5, 12). The dump truck will start at (5, –3) and will stop at (–4, 33).
What are the coordinates of the intersection that both trucks drive through?

We first find the lines of the motion of each truck, then calculate its intercept.
Garbage truck:
m = (12 - 4) / (5 - 3)
m = 4
4 - y = 4(3 - x)
4x - y = 8

Dump truck:
m = (33 + 3) / (-4 - 5)
m = -4
33 - y = -4(-4 - x)
4x + y = 17

Adding the two equations to solve them, we get:
8x = 25
x = 25 / 8

y = 17 - 4(25/8)
y = 17 - 25/2
y = 9/2

The trucks' point of intersection is (25/8,9/2)

C. 1458 cubic units

Step-by-step explanation:

one cubes side length is 9. The only side that changes is the length since the size is doubled so instead of it 9 it would be 18.

V= L × W × H

= 18 × 9 × 9

= 1,458
