12 is the right answer bc it's 1/3x4
Let's say the first truck weighs x tons
Then, the weight of 2nd truck = x+2 tons
The weight of 3rd truck = (x + 2) + 2 = x+4 tons
The weight of 4th truck = (x + 4) + 2 = x+6 tons
Total weight of 4 trucks:
x + (x+2) + (x+4) + (x+6) = 32
which can be solved easily to give x = 5
Answer:
gradient = -
, y- intercept = 
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is
y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )
Given
3x + 4y = 5 ( subtract 3x from both sides )
4y = - 3x + 5 ( divide terms by 4 )
y = -
x +
← in slope- intercept form
with slope m = -
and y- intercept c = 
Matilda only ate 1/12 of the pie as 1/2 of 1/6 = 1/12
The ODE has characteristic equation

with roots
, and hence the characteristic solution

For the particular solution, assume an ansatz of
, with derivatives


Substituting these into the ODE gives

so that the particular solution is
