Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Data provided in the question
Number of bags of mulch = 7.5 bags
Number of square yards = 12
So by considering above information, we could find the number of bags for each square yard is
= 
= 
= 0.625
The 0.625 is equal to bag
Therefore, she need to use bag for each square yard
Basically we use the fraction so that each square yard for use of bag could be find out
311/500 is written as a decimal by dividing 500 into 311 which is 0.6206
It is important to go through details that are provided in the question. Based on those details the answer to the question can be easily deduced.
Let us assume the number of lions at the zoo = x
Number of male lions in the zoo = 2
Then
(1/6) * x = 2
x/6 = 2
x = 2 * 6
= 12
So there are a total of 12 lions in the zoo. I hope the procedure is clear enough for you to understand. Using this method, it will be possible for you to do similar problems in future without requiring any help from outside. Only be careful about the calculation part.
(0,346)(2,344.8)
slope = (344.8 - 346) / (2 - 0) = -1.2 / 2 = -0.6
y = mx + b
slope(m) = -0.6
(0,346)...x = 0 and y = 346
now we sub and find b, the y int
346 = -0.6(0) + b
346 = b
so ur equation is : y = -0.6x + 346....with x being the number of weeks
after 4 weeks...
y = -0.6(4) + 346
y = - 2.4 + 346
y = 343.6 <==== after 4 weeks
after 9 weeks..
y = -0.6(9) + 346
y = -5.4 + 346
y = 340.6 <=== after 9 weeks
