Question 967204: the front wheels of a truck are 3m in circumference and the back wheels are 4m in circumference when the front wheels made 5 more revolutions than the back wheels find the distance traveled by the truck Answer by lwsshak3(11628) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! the front wheels of a truck are 3m in circumference and the back wheels are 4m in circumference when the front wheels made 5 more revolutions than the back wheels find the distance traveled by the truck
***
let x=number of revolutions made by back wheels
x+5=number of revolutions made by front wheels
distance traveled=circumference*number of revolutions(same for both wheels)
4x=3(x+5)
4x=3x+15
x=15
4x=60
distance traveled by the truck=60 m
