You need 3 trucks of sand that hold 5 tons and 2 trucks that hold 3 tons to move all the sand in one trip
Answer:
x = 20
Step-by-step explanation:
The angles shown are alternate exterior angles.
Alternate exterior angles are congruent
This means that 46 must equal 3x - 14
Note that we've just created an equation that we can use to solve for
We now use the equation to solve for x
3x - 14 = 46
add 14 to both sides
3x - 14 + 14 = 46 + 14
simplify
3x = 60
Divide both sides by 3
3x / 3 = x
60 / 3 = 20
We get that x = 20
You can make it with 10 because 10%times 5% is 50%
