Answer:

You need to buy 6.5 cubic yards.

Step-by-step explanation:

You want to put a 5 inch thick layer of topsoil for a new 23 ft by 18 ft garden.

We know 1 yard = 3 feet or 1 yard = 36 inches

Then 1 inch = 1/36 yard.

1 feet = 1/3 yard

The volume of the layer of the topsoil is given by:

= 5(1/36)(23)(1/3)(18)(1/3) cubic yards

2070/324=6.39 cubic yards

Now, the store only sells increments of 1/4 = 0.25 cubic yards.

So, we need to buy 6.39/0.25=25.56 increments

Rounded to 26 increments.

Therefore, we need to buy 26 increments of 1/4 cubic yards.

That becomes 6.5 cubic yards.

5 inches = 5/12 = 0.4166 feet

23 x 18 x 0.4166 = 172.5 cubic feet

1 cubic foot = 0.037037 cubic yards

172.5 x 0.037037 = 6.39 round up to 6.5 cubic yards

HELP!!! Use the factor Theorem to determine whether the binomial x+1 is a factor of the polynomial function f(x) =2x^3-9x^2+13x-
Dovator [93]

ANSWER

A. No because f(c)=-30

EXPLANATION

The given polynomial is

f(x) =2x^3-9x^2+13x-6

If x+1 is a factor , then f(-1) must evaluate to zero.

f( - 1) =2( - 1)^3-9( - 1)^2+13( - 1)-6

f( - 1) =2( - 1)-9( 1)+13( - 1)-6

f( - 1) = - 2-9 - 13-6

f( - 1) = -11 - 19

f( - 1) = - 30

Since f(-1) is not equal to zero, x+1 is not a factor of

f(x) =2x^3-9x^2+13x-6

lozanna [386]

Answer:

The circle's diameter is 4\ yd

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The circumference of a circle is equal to

C=\pi D

where

D is the diameter of the circle

In this problem we have

C=12.56\ yd

\pi=3.14

substitute the values and solve for D

12.56=(3.14)D

D=12.56/(3.14)=4\ yd
