the x and y values makes both equations true
Explanation
a linear system is the set of 2 linear equations.
Step 1
the solution to a linear system is the coordiante where the line intersect, this coordiante satisfies both equations, then
the x and y values makes both equations true
Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
transposition
3x/4=1/5
xc=yc
15x/20×20=4/20×20
15x=4
x=4/15
Let's say the first truck weighs x tons
Then, the weight of 2nd truck = x+2 tons
The weight of 3rd truck = (x + 2) + 2 = x+4 tons
The weight of 4th truck = (x + 4) + 2 = x+6 tons
Total weight of 4 trucks:
x + (x+2) + (x+4) + (x+6) = 32
which can be solved easily to give x = 5
