The graph graphed is y=1/2x

so
y=1/2x and y=-x+6
y=y so
1/2x=-x+6
times 2 both sides
x=-2x+12
add 2x both sides
3x=12
x=4

sub back
y=1/2x
y=1/2(4)
y=2

(4,2) is the solution

If one bag of grass seed will cover 225 square feet, what is the minimum number of bags the haney family will need to cover thei

Veronika [31]

Answer:

9 bags

Step-by-step explanation:

First we will need to calculate the area of their entire backyard, which has a shape of trapezium.

So the formula for the area of a trapezium is $A=\frac{(a+b)*h}{2}$

a and b are the lenghts of the parallel sides and h is the height.

From the picture $a=10*5=50\\b=9*5=45\\h=8*5=40$

Then we plug into our formula

$A=\frac{(a+b)*h}{2} =\frac{(50+45)*40}{2} = 1200$ square feet

To get the number of bags required we just simply divide the aree of their entire yard by the space that 1 bag covers. We get:

$\frac{1900}{225} =8.444...$ bags

This is more than 8 bags so they will need 9 bags to cover their entire yard.
