Assume that the angle is at the rear of the truck bed, and that the length of the truck bed is 12'.  Then:
          
                    opp side
tan theta = --------------
                    adj side

becomes:
                        8 ft
tan theta    = ---------    = 2/3 = approx.  0.667   
                       12 ft

Then tan theta = 2/3, and arctan (2/3) = 0.589 radian, or 33.7 degrees.

This is less than 45 deg, so the answer is NO, the clay will not pour out easily.

How to solve this question
Viefleur [7K]

Answer:

7x+21 = 7x + 21

Step-by-step explanation:

7(x+3)=6-(-7x - 15)

L.H.S

=7(x+3)

=7x+21 (multiply 7 by (x+3))

R.H.S:

=6-(-7x - 15)

= 6+7x+15 (multiply the -ive sign in the bracket)

= 7x + 21 ( adding 15 and 6)

now compare the two sides

7x+21 = 7x + 21 hence we prove that L.H.S= R.H.S
