Hello.
In order to solve a proportion, you should cross-multiply:
Multiply 7 times 9 and 5 times x:
5x=63
Divide both sides by 5:
x=
Now let's solve the second proportion.
Multiply 8p times 6 and 12 times 15:
48p=180
Divide both sides by 48:
p=3.75
I hope it helps.
Have an outstanding day.
Answer:
16.3 years
Step-by-step explanation:
1 ha = 10,000 m^2
The total capacity of the landfill is:
If waste is compacted to twice its delivered density, its volume is half of the delivered volume. Assuming that a year has 52 weeks, the volume of compacted solid waste dumped per year is:
The expected life of the landfill is given by its capacity divided by the yearly volume:
The landfill has an expected life of 16.3 years.
