If Melinda wanted to build a patio in her backyard that was 14 feet long, 6 feet wide

The volume of aggregate that she needs to build the patio is 13.18 ft^3

<h3>How many cubic feet of aggregate would she need to build the walkway?</h3>

We know that the backyard is 14ft long, 6 feet wide and 4 inches deep.

Rememeber that:

1ft = 12 in

Then:

4 in = (4/12) ft = (1/3) ft

Then the volume of the backyard is:

V = (14ft)*(6ft)*(1/3 ft) = 28ft^3

Now we know that we have a mix of 4 parts aggregate to 4.5 parts loose cement that need to fill these 28 cubic feet.

Note that:

4 + 4.5 = 8.5

How many times we have 8.5 in 28?

28/8.5 = 3.294

Now for each of these we have 4 parts of aggregate, then the volume of aggregate that we need is:

4*3.294 ft^3 = 13.18 ft^3

The volume of aggregate that she needs to build the patio is 13.18 ft^3

marusya05 [52]

Answer:

0.448 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

d = -16t² -4t + 412

find t when d = 407

substituting d = 407 into the equation:

407 = -16t² -4t + 412 (subtract 407 from both sides)

-16t² -4t + 412 - 407 = 0

-16t² -4t + 5 = 0 (multiply both sides by -1)

16t² + 4t - 5 = 0  

solving using your method of choice (i.e completing the square or using the quadratic equation), you will end up with

t = (-1/8) (1 + √21)= -0.70 seconds (not possible because time cannot be negative)

or

t = (-1/8) (1 -√21) = 0.448 seconds (answer)

A principal of $835 is invested in an account at 4% per quarter simple interest which of the following sequences describes the d
netineya [11]
To solve the question we use the compound interest formula which is given by:
A=p(1+r)^(nt)
where:
A=future value
p=principle
r=rate
n=number of terms
t=time
thus plugging in the values in the formula we shall have:
A=835(1+0.04)^(4t)
simplifying this we get the sequence:
A=835(1.040)^(4t)
Thus the answer to the sequence will be:
A=835(1.040)^(4t)
