Answer:
, x = 6 ton
Step-by-step explanation:
The truck can be filled with a total of 20 ton.
There are already 14 ton inside the truck, so if we call x the weight of goods that we can still add into the truck, we know that (x+14) must be equal at most at 20. Therefore, the inequality becomes:
Solving it, we find
which means that the most amount of goods that could be added to the truck is 6 tons.
Assuming that CB is tangent, this is just a right triangle with a hypotenuse of 20 and a side of 12 so by the Pythagorean Theorem:
20^2=12^2+x^2
400=144+x^2
x^2=400-144
x^2=256
x=16
Answer:
365 and 1/2 blocks will be used
The scale fact is 0.25
Step-by-step explanation:
So . .
This represents 1 block is equivalent to 2 feet
So . . There are 725 feet and because One block is equal to 2 feet you divide 725 ÷ 2 = 362.5 blocks will be used
To find the scale factor simply divide the deminsions of the new shape by old
