cab (front) of the truck weighs 22,150 pounds, and the trailer (back) of the truck weighs11,300 pounds when empty. In pounds, how much cargo can the truck carry and still be allowed to cross the bridge?
Part I: Write an equation or inequality that models this situation. Let c be the cargo weight. Show your work.

)Part II: Solve the equation or inequality you wrote in Part I for c. What does this tell you about how much cargothe truck can carry and still be allowed to cross the bridge?

Part I

The weight of the truck without cargo is 22150+11300= 33450 pound
The weight of the cargo is given as c and altogether with the weight of the truck, the sum must not exceed 75500

The inequality is given 33450+c \leq 75500

Part II
33450+c \leq 75500
c \leq 75500-33450
c \leq 42050

Hence, the maximum weight allowed for the cargo is 42050 pounds

Write and solve an equation to find the value of x and the missing angle measures
MatroZZZ [7]

Answer:

in explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

angle rules say that those angles respond to each other meaning

they will equal each other

so 6x-4=4x+14

now solve for x

x=9

the top angle will be

6(9)-4=50

bottom angle will be 50

4(9)+14=50

What is the value of b?
STatiana [176]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

By the polygon exterior angle sum theorem, all the exterior angles of a polygon add up to equal 360 regardless of the number of sides it has. That means that 82 + 150 + b = 360 so

b + 232 = 360 and

b = 128
