Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

total weight is 4 tons.

ratio of weight of truck to weight of coal is 7:5....added = 12

so 7/12 of the total weight is the truck's

and 5/12 of the total weight is the coal

7/12 of 4 tons = 7/12 * 4 = 28/12 = 2 1/3 tons <== weight of truck

5/12 of 4 tons = 5/12 * 4 = 20/12 = 1 2/3 tons <== weight of coal

What equation do I need to use?
goldenfox [79]
To ease your problem, consider "L" as you x-axis
Then the coordinate become:
A(- 4 , 3)   and B(1 , 2) [you notice that just the y's changed]

This is a reflection problem.
Reflect point B across the river line "L" to get B', symmetric of B about L.
The coordinates of B'(1 , -1) [remember L is our new x-axis]
JOIN A to B' . AB' intersect L, say in H
We have to find the shortest way such  that AH + HB = shortest.
But HB = HB' (symmetry about L) , then I can write instead of 
AH + HB →→ AH + HB'. This is the shortest since the shortest distance between 2 points is the straight line and H is the point requiered
