Answer:
339 bricks.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have the weight of each brick and what the truck can support. Therefore what we must do is pass all to the same unit of measurement to calculate the quantity of bricks.
In this case we will pass everything to pounds.
We have that a 1 pound is 16 ounces, therefore 14 would be:
14 ounces * 1 pound / 16 ounces = 0.875 pounds
In addition we have that 1 ton is 2204.62 pounds, therefore 3/4 would be:
3/4 ton * 2204.62 pounds / 1 ton = 1653.467 pounds
Therefore, in total the brick weighs 4,875 pounds (4 + 0.875) and the truck can support 1653,467 pounds, the number of bricks would be:
1653.467 / 4.875 = 339.17
In other words, it can support about 339 bricks.
The number ... n
one quarter of the number ... 1/4 of n = 1/4 * n
one third of the number ... 1/3 of n = 1/3 * n
one quarter of the number is subtracted from one third of the number ... 1/3 * n - 1/4 * n
the result is 7 ... = 7
We can put it together:
1/3 * n - 1/4 * n = 7
4/12 * n - 3/12 * n = 7
1/12 * n = 7 /*12
n = 7 * 12
n = 84
The number you are looking for is 84.
The slope is three because the x goes up 1 and y goes up 3 so it’s 3/1 which makes the slope 3
<span>x^2 - 4x - 12 = 0
factors
(x - 6)(x + 2) = 0
</span>Set (x - 6) and (x + 2)<span> equal to </span><span>0</span><span> and solve for </span><span>xx</span>.<span>
x - 6 = 0; x = 6
x + 2 = 0; x = -2
answer
x = -2 or x = 6</span>
