A) Diagram

Below is a sketch of the recctangular lawn (the inside rectangle) and the gravel border.


  6 ft + 150 yards + 6 ft
-------------------------------
|                                    |
|     ---------------------      |
|     |                        |     |
|     |                        |     |   6 ft + 80 yard + 6 ft
|     |                        |     |
|      ---------------------     |
|                                    |
|------------------------------|

B) How many square feet of the gravel will surround the lawn?

Conversion: 1 yard = 3 feet

=> 80 yard = 80*3 feet = 240 feet

=> 150 yard = 150 * 3 feet = 450 feet

Area of the external rectangle = (6 ft + 240 ft + 6 ft) (6 ft + 450 ft + 6 ft) = 252 ft * 462 ft = 116,424 ft^2

Area of the internal rectangle = 240 ft * 450 ft = 108,000 ft^2

Area of the gravel border = 116,424 ft^2 - 108,000 ft^2 = 8424 ft^2

answer: 8424 ft^2

C) volume

volume = area of the base * depth

2 inches = 2/12 ft = 1/6 ft

=> volume = 8424 ft^2 * 1/6 ft = 1404 ft^3

answer: 1404 ft^3

C) cost

1 yard^3 = $ 30

1yard ^3 = (3 feet)^3 = 27 ft^3

=> cost = $ 30 / 27 ft^3

=> 1404 ft^3 * $30 / 27 ft^3 = $ 1560

answer: $ 1560

If the marked price of an article is Rs. x, discount amount is
sattari [20]

Answer:

Rs. (x - y + 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

The marked price is the price that a product is to be sold. The product can be sold at a discount which is below the marked price of the product.

The marked price of the article is Rs. X. The discount is Rs. y, therefore the article price = marked price - discount = x - y.

But since the article is sold with a VAT of Rs. 2, the VAT is added to the price, therefore the selling price of the article including VAT is Rs. (x - y + 2)
