The cost for the contractor to have all the dirt hauled away for a foundation of 12 feet long, 9 feet wide and 6 feet deep is $720

<h3>Volume of rectangular prism</h3>

volume of a rectangular prism = lwh

where

  • l = length
  • w = width
  • h = height

Therefore,

l = 12 ft

w = 9 ft

h = 6 ft

volume of the foundation = 12 × 9 × 6

volume of the foundation = 648 ft³

Therefore, the contractor pays $180 per load for the trucks remove the dirt.

648 cubic feet = 24 cubic yard

6 cubic yards = 1 truck load

24 cubic yard =

cross multiply

number of truck load = 24 / 6 = 4 truck loads

Hence,

1 truck load = $180

4 truck load =?

cross multiply

cost = 4 × 180 = $720

At the local ball park, the team charges $5 for each ticket and expects to make $1,400 in concessions. The team must pay its pla
Eduardwww [97]

Answer:

The number of tickets must be sold is 2500

Step-by-step explanation:

The charge for each ticket = $ 5

The concessions amount =  $ 1400

The amount paid to players = $ 2000

The amount paid to workers = $ 1600

The cost of each bag given to each fan = $ 3 per bag

Let The number of tickets sold = x

Now, number of ticket sold = number of fans = x

So, According to question

( charge per ticket × number of fans - cost of each bag × number of fan - concession amount ) =  amount paid to players + amount paid to workers

Or, $5 x - $3 x - $1400 = $2000 + $1600

Or, $2 x = $3600 + $1400

Or, $2 x = $5000

∴         x = \frac{5000}{2} = 2500

Hence  Answer
