Kamila has a rectangular lawn that measures 80 by 150 feet. She wants to lay gravel made from colored rock in a border, 6 feet w

ide, all around the lawn. Create a diagram that shows Kamila’s rectangular lawn and the gravel border. Assign variables to any unknown sides and label the diagram. Use your diagram to determine how many square feet of the gravel border will surround the lawn. Kamila decided that the depth of the gravel needs to be 2 inches. What is the total volume of gravel needed for the border? (Hint: dimensions must be in terms of the same unit before you can calculate the volume) D. A large bag of colored rock contains of a cubic yard and costs $30. What is the total cost of the rocks needed for the border? (Hint: the volume of the border must be in terms of a cubic yard before you can calculate the cost)

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

Which choice represents the expanded form of the expression (x- 2)3
Murljashka [212]

Answer:

(x−2)^3=x^3−6x^2+12x-8

Step-by-step explanation:

if you are talking about the binomial  (x−2)^3   you must expand then simplify. (x-2)3 you would just remove the parenthesizes and multiply -2 with 3 to get x-6 but I think you meant (x-2)^3

PLEASE HELP OH LORD JESUS PLEASE HELP ME!! I NEED HELP!! PLEASE HELP!!!
ddd [48]

Answer:

-1        <---------- slope

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the formula is y2-y1=x2-x1

since the points are (-2,6) and (0,4)

Enter the points in

4-6/0-(-2)   ----> (2 negatives is a +)

-2/2= -1

The slope is -1

If the slope is -1, the equation will be y=-x+b

then, enter one of the given points, (-2,6)

6=2+b

b=4

So the slope int form is y=-x+b

to find the point slope form,

y-y1=m(x1-x) <--- formula

So,

take 1 point (-2,6) and enter it in

y-6=-1(x+2)   <--- point slope form

to graph y=-3x+2

make x=0 and enter into the equation

y=0+2

y=2

so if x=0, y=2 so thats one point (0,2)

and lets say if x=-6 (enter into equation)

y=-3(-6)+2

y=18+2

y=20

so if x=-6, y=20 (another point) (-6,20)

you only need 2 points to graph a line

so enter (0,2) and (-6,20) and draw a line
