Call the weght of the first truck "w_{1}". We then know that the truck after that is 2 tons more, and the next and the next. i.e:
w_{2} = w_{1} + 2
w_{3} = (w_{2} + 2) = (w_{1}+4)
w_{4} = (w_{3} + 2) = (w_{1}+6)

We also know that total is 32 tons. 
w_{total} = 32 = (w_{1}) + (w_{2}) + (w_{3}) + (w_{4})
32 = (w_{1})+(w_{1}+2)+(w_{1}+4)+(w_{1}+6)
32= 4(w_{1})+12
20=4(w_{1})
w_{1} = 5 tons

Therefore the trukcs weigh 5,7,9 and 11 tons for a total of 32 tons.

Converting to pounds, the trucks weigh 10,000, 14,0000, 18,0000 and 22,000 pounds.

polygon ABCD is defined by the points A(-4,2), B(-2,4), C(1,3), and D(2,2). match the coordinates of the points you f the transf
Tomtit [17]

<u><em>Answer:</em></u>

D' ..................> (-2,2)

C'' .................> (3,-1)

A''' ................> (4,-2)

B'' .................> (4,2)

<u><em>Step-by-step explanation:</em></u>

<u>Before we begin, we should remember the rotation rules:</u>

<u>1- Rotation 90° clockwise:</u>

Coordinates (x,y) become (y,-x)

<u>2- Rotation 90° counter clockwise:</u>

Coordinates (x,y) become (-y,x)

<u>3- Rotation 180° clockwise:</u>

Coordinates (x,y) become (-x,-y)

<u>4- Rotation 270° counter clockwise:</u>

Coordinates (x,y) become (y,-x) ...........> same as rotation 90° clockwise

<u>Now, let's consider the given problem:</u>

<u>1- Coordinates of D' if polygon ABCD rotates 90° counter clockwise to create A'B'C'D'</u>

Original coordinates of point D are (2,2)

Rotation 90° counter clockwise means that the new coordinates will be (-y,x) which is (-2,2)

<u>2- Coordinates of C'' if polygon ABCD rotates 90° clockwise to create A''B''C''D''</u>

Original coordinates of point C are (1,3)

Rotation 90° clockwise means that the new coordinates will be (y,x) which is (3,-1)

<u>3- Coordinates of A''' if polygon ABCD rotates 180° clockwise to create A'''B'''C'''D'''</u>

Original coordinates of point A are (-4,2)

Rotation 180° clockwise means that the new coordinates will be (-x,-y) which is (4,-2)

<u>4- Coordinates of B'' if polygon ABCD rotates 270° counter clockwise to create A''B''C''D''</u>

Original coordinates of point B are (-2,4)

Rotation 270° counter clockwise means that the new coordinates will be (y,-x) which is (4,2)

Hope this helps :)
