First we need to calculate the volume which is Base*depth or length*width*depth
first we have to change all the units so they are the same, 3 inches in this case will equal 1/4feet
multiply all the numbers together
35ft*12ft*1/4foot= 105 cubic feet
however the problem says the cost per cubic *yards*
so take the 105 cubic feet and divide by 3 (3 feet to a yard)
105/3 = 35 cubic yards
the cost of 35 cubic yards of concrete =
35*125= $4375

You isolate the y by subtracting the x

2y = 7 - x

and then you divide by two to get the answer to y

1.Show that the statement p: “If x is a real number such that x3 + 4x = 0, then x is 0” is true by
Genrish500 [490]

If x is a real number such that x3 + 4x = 0 then x is 0”.Let q: x is a real number such that x3 + 4x = 0 r: x is 0.i To show that statement p is true we assume that q is true and then show that r is true.Therefore let statement q be true.∴ x2 + 4x = 0 x x2 + 4 = 0⇒ x = 0 or x2+ 4 = 0However since x is real it is 0.Thus statement r is true.Therefore the given statement is true.ii To show statement p to be true by contradiction we assume that p is not true.Let x be a real number such that x3 + 4x = 0 and let x is not 0.Therefore x3 + 4x = 0 x x2+ 4 = 0 x = 0 or x2 + 4 = 0 x = 0 orx2 = – 4However x is real. Therefore x = 0 which is a contradiction since we have assumed that x is not 0.Thus the given statement p is true.iii To prove statement p to be true by contrapositive method we assume that r is false and prove that q must be false.Here r is false implies that it is required to consider the negation of statement r.This obtains the following statement.∼r: x is not 0.It can be seen that x2 + 4 will always be positive.x ≠ 0 implies that the product of any positive real number with x is not zero.Let us consider the product of x with x2 + 4.∴ x x2 + 4 ≠ 0⇒ x3 + 4x ≠ 0This shows that statement q is not true.Thus it has been proved that∼r ⇒∼qTherefore the given statement p is true.
