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)

Fudgin [204]

length of pipe= 30m

Inside dia. = 1.2m

Outside dia. = 1.8m


Volume of concrete= (outside dia. - inside dia.)h

V= (pi)
v= [(3.14*0.9*0.9)-(3.14*0.6*0.6)]30

v= (3.3534-1.1304)30
v=(2.233)30 = 66.690m cube

since it's volume the answer 66.690 is in cubic meters.

The states C and D spend a total of ​$56.6 million for tourism. The state C spends ​$2.6 million more than the state D. Find the
igomit [66]

Answer:

State C : $30.9 Million       State D : $25.7 Million

Step-by-step explanation:

It may help to just forget about the word "million" and focus on the decimal number part,so one you get the deciaml number you can just put the word million after it as your answer.

First do 56.6 divided by 2, which equals 28.3. Since it said that State C spends 2.6 million more, you hvae to add 28.3 and 2.6 together, which also equals 30.9. So now you know State C spends $30.9 million total. In order to find out how much money State D sends, you have to do 56.6 - 30.9,which comes up to 25.7. So finnaly you know that State C spends 30.9 million dollars and State D spends 25.7 million dollars.
