Answer:

16

Step-by-step explanation:

$4.35 x 15 hr =  $65.25

$100 - $ 65.25 = $34.75

$34.75 / $2.2 =  15.79 bushels

round up to 16  

16 x 2.20 = $35.20

John has a rectangular-shaped field whose length is 62.5 yards and width is 45.3 yards. The area of the field is ________ square
oee [108]
Area = 2831.25 square yards

Perimeter =215.6 yards

EXPLANATION

The area and perimeter of a rectangular field are found using the formula for finding the area and perimeter of a rectangle respectively.

That means, area of the rectangular field is given by the formula,

A= l\times w

We just have to substitute
l=62.5 and w= 45.3 into the given formula and evaluate.

This implies that;

A= 62.5\times 45.3

This gives the area of the rectangular-shaped field to be;

A= 2831.25 square yards.

Now for the perimeter, we use the formula

P=2w +2l

Or

P=2(w +l)

Substituting the values for the length and width gives,

P=2(62.5+45.3)

\Rightarrow P=2(107.8)

\Rightarrow P=215.6

Hence the perimeter of the rectangular shaped field is 215.6 yards.

Factor completely and then place the factors in the proper location on the grid. 36x 2 + 60x + 25
Aleonysh [2.5K]
Since 36x² + 60x + 25 is the perfect square trinomial, we use this formula a² + 2ab + b² = (a + b)². Hence, the solution is (6x + 5)²

Mike hiked to a lake in 4.5 hours at an average rate of 2
aleksandrvk [35]

Answer:

It took Pedro  <em>3.81 hours</em> to reach the lake.

Step-by-step explanation:

Time taken by Mike to hike a lake = 4.5 hours

Average rate of Mike while hiking the lake = 2\frac{1}{5}\ miles/hr

Formula for distance can be seen as:

Distance = Speed\times Time

Distance traveled by Mike = 4.5 \times 2\frac{1}{5} = 4.5\times \frac{11}{5} = 9.9\ miles

Rate of Pedro while hiking the same distance = 2\frac{3}{5}\ miles/hr = \frac{13}{5}\ miles/hr

Given that, Pedro also travels the same distance.

And we have to find the Time.

Time = \dfrac{Distance}{Speed}

Time = \dfrac{9.9}{\frac{13}{5}}\\\Rightarrow Time = \dfrac{9.9\times 5}{13} = \bold{3.81\ hours}

It took Pedro  <em>3.81 hours</em> to reach the lake.
