Answer:

35 smaller trucks.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

i) The larger truck with a 2.5-ton payload, and smaller trucks with 1.5-ton payload.

ii)  To unload a freight train 21 larger trucks are needed .

Total load of the freight train = 21 times 2.5 tons

= 21  × 2.5

= 52.5 tons

To find the number of small trucks needed, we need to divide 52.5 by 1.5

= 52.5 ÷ 1.5

= 35 small trucks needed.

So, to unload the freight, we need 35 smaller trucks.

The value in cents of 4 quarters and x dimes is
Zina [86]
To add numbers, their units should be the same. We need first to convert the quarters and dimes into cents.
4 quarters is equal to 100 cents, while a dime is equal to 10 cents.
In formula, the answer would be 100+10x. ( x refers to the number of dimes)

The midpoint of K is M(-3, -1). One endpoint is J(-12, -11). What are the coordinates of endpoint K?
Over [174]

Answer: 2 times sqrt(181) (approximately 26.9)

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we can plot these points on a graph. Then, we’ll use the Distance Formula to calculate the distance between the two points, which is sqrt(181).


Since the problem tells us that one of our coordinates is the midpoint of K, we know that the length of the segment we just calculated is 1/2 of K. We can multiply our answer to get that K is 2 times sqrt(181).

for every 4 miles Vanessa jogged, Cody jogged 3 miles. if Vanessa jogged 1 mile, how far would Cody have jogged
Ksju [112]
Alright here's the breakdown:

it said every 4 miles <span>Vanessa jogged, Cody jogged 3 miles.

so

</span><span>Vanessa jogged 1 mile

that means 

Cody jogged .75 of a mile ( or 75% of 1 )

because

Cody will always jog 75% of  how much Vanessa joged 

so say that

</span><span>Vanessa jogged 50 miles

all you do is take 75% of how much </span>Vanessa jogged

and that should be how much Cody joged 

hopes this helps!
