Call the weght of the first truck "
". We then know that the truck after that is 2 tons more, and the next and the next. i.e:
We also know that total is 32 tons.
Therefore the trukcs weigh 5,7,9 and 11 tons for a total of 32 tons.
Converting to pounds, the trucks weigh 10,000, 14,0000, 18,0000 and 22,000 pounds.
Find the distance of each trip:
68 km / 34 trips = 2 km per trip
Divide total distance by distance per trip:
348 km / 2 km per trip = 174 trips
Answer: 174 trips
Between 10 and 11, all the others would be to much or to little
Recall your d = rt, distance = rate * time
now, if say, by the time they meet, Mr Cunningham has travelled "d" miles, that means Mrs Cunningham must also had travelled "d" miles as well.
However, he left 3 hours earlier, so by the time he travelled "d" miles, and took say "t" hours, for her it took 3 hour less, because she started driving 3 hours later, so, she's been on the road 3 hours less than Mr Cunningham, so by the time they meet, Mrs Cunningham has travelled then "t - 3" hours.
Answer:
The volume of the irregular figure would be 144 
.
Step-by-step explanation:
If you wish to make the process of calculating the volume easier, you can picture the irregular figure as two rectangular prisms: the large one on the bottom, and the smaller one appearing to protrude from the prism below it. Using this method, you only need to find the volumes of the two rectangular prisms and add the values together to get the volume for the irregular figure. The formula used to find the volume of a rectangular prism is 
, where 
, 
, and 
, represents the length, width, and height of the rectangular prism respectively. Using the formula above, the volume of the larger rectangular prism would be 12 * 3 * 3 = 12 * 9 = 108 , and the volume of the smaller rectangular prism would be 4 * 3 * 3 = 12 * 3 = 36 . So the volume of the entire irregular figure would be 108 + 36 = 144 .
