Answer:

1055 lbs.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since 1 ton is 2000 pounds, half a ton is 1000 pounds. The wheelbarrow weights 55 pounds in itself, so the total weight will be 1000 + 55 = 1055 lbs.

Find three consecutive EVEN integers such that the sum of the smallest number and twice the middle number is 20 more than the la

nordsb [41]

define the 3 numbers

smallest number = x

middle number = x + 2

largest number = x + 4

write the equation

sum of the smallest number and twice the middle number

$\begin{gathered} x+2(x+2) \\ x+2x+4 \\ 3x+4 \end{gathered}$

20 more than the largest number

$\begin{gathered} x+4+20 \\ x+24 \end{gathered}$

equal the expressions

$\begin{gathered} 3x+4=x+24 \\ 3x-x=24-4 \\ 2x=20 \\ x=\frac{20}{2} \\ x=10 \end{gathered}$

the numbers should be 10, 12 and 14

$\begin{gathered} 10+2\cdot(12)=14+20 \\ 10+24=34 \\ 34=34 \end{gathered}$

The endpoints of on are located at O(1, 2) and N(3, 1). Using slope-intercept form, write the equation of line on.

<span>y = -1/2x +2 1/2</span>
General equation;
y = mx + c

Calculating the slope;
Change in y/ (change in x) = gradient m

(2-1)/(1-3) = - 1/2

Replacing m gives;
y= -1/2x + c

Calculating the value of c
take point (1,2) above and replace y with 2 and x with 1
2=-1/2 *1 +c
c = 2 1/2
Equation then is
y = -1/2x +2 1/2

4y+2y+10=50 <br>show your work<br>

Answer:

y = 20/3

Step-by-step explanation:

4y + 2y + 10 = 50

Combine like terms on the left side.

6y + 10 = 50

Subtract 10 from both sides.

6y = 40

Divide both sides by 6.

y = 40/6

Reduce the fraction by dividing the numerator and denominator by 2.

y = 20/3
