2 inches = 0.1666 feet

15 x 24 x 0.1666 = 59.98 cubic feet

 1 cubic yard = 27 cubic feet

59.98 is greater than 27 so 1 cubic yard of topsoil will not be enough

Crank

Answer:

$14.8

Step-by-step explanation:

There is a mistype in the question. It should say: ... <em>si cada uno de ellos hicieron una contribución de </em><em>dieciseis</em><em> pesos...</em>

So if everybody contributes $14, they make a total of 14*x, where x denotes the number of students. In this scenario, $4 are left, calling y to the cost of the trip, then:

14*x = y - 4 (eq. 1)

In the other scenario, everybody contributes $16 and $6 are in excess, so

16*x = y + 6 (eq. 2)

subtracting eq. 1 to eq. 2:

16*x - 14*x = y + 6 - (y - 4)

2*x =  y + 6 - y + 4

2*x = 10

x = 10/2 = 5

Replacing this value in eq. 1:

14*5 = y - 4

70 + 4 = y

y = $74

If every student pays: 74/5 =  $14.8, then they would get altogether the exact cost of the trip

I need this problem solved real quick
PIT_PIT [208]

<u>Let's take this problem step-by-step</u>:

<u>The ;unlabeled angle' adjacent to the 'outside angle of measure 78°'</u>

  ⇒ is on a straight line

     ⇒ sum of angle measure = 180 degrees

       unlabeled_.angle+78 = 180\\unlabeled_.angle = 102

<u>Now we know:</u>

 ⇒ sum of all angles in a triangle ⇒ 180°

<u>Let's put that in equation form and solve:</u>

  x + 102 + 57=180\\x + 159=180\\x = 21

<u>Answer: 21°</u>

<u></u>

Hope that helps!
