Mr. Richards had 6000 pounds of topsoil delivered to his house how many tons is in 6000 pounds

Hello!

2000lbs = 1 ton

So if we have 6000lbs then we can just multiply it by the pound to ton ration;

6000lbs*(1 ton/2000lbs) = 3 tons

we can see the units work out because pounds divides out and leaves us with the unit tons.

Hope this helps! Any questions please ask! Thank you kindly!

Since 1 ton is equivalent to 2000pounds, 6000 pounds would be 3 tons.

Find the area of the figure. Round your answer to the nearest hundredth, if necessary. (12cm)

Brilliant_brown [7]

Answer:

The answer is 56.52 square centimeters

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a circle is Pi R^2 so that means the area of a semi circle is half of that which is Pi R^2/2

since diameter is 12, radius = 12/2 = 6

Area = (3.14 × 6^2)÷2 = 56.52

Complete question :

A pair of $36 jeans were on sale at Jim's Jeans for 1/3 off. The same pair of jeans were $42 at David's Denims. The jeans were on sale for 2/3 off.

A.) which store had the better buy

B.) how much will you pay at the store that has the better buy

Answer:

A.)David's denim has the better buy

B.) $14

Step-by-step explanation:

Jim's Jean store :

Cost of Jean = $36

Discount = 1/3 off

Discounted cost = $36 - (1/3 * $36)

Discounted cost = $36 - $12 = $24

David's Denim:

Cost of Jean = $42

Discount = 2/3 off

Discounted cost = $42 - (2/3 * $42)

Discounted cost = $42 - $28 = $14

David's denim has the better buy with a discounted price lower than the discounted price at Jim's store.

Cost at store with the better buy is $14

An arch is in the shape of a parabola. It has a span of 100 feet and a maximum height of 25 ft.

faltersainse [42]

Answer:

$y=-\frac{1}{100}(x-50)^2+25$

the height of the arch 10 feet from the center is 24 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

An arch is in the shape of a parabola. It has a span of 100 feet, the vertex lies at the center 50 and the maximum height of 25 ft.

Vertex at (50,25)

vertex form of the equation is

$y=a(x-h)^2+k$ , (h,k) is the center

$y=a(x-50)^2+25$

the parabola starts at (0,0) that is (x,y)

$0=a(0-50)^2+25$

subtract 25 from both sides

$-25=a(-50)^2$

$-25=a(2500)$

divide both sides by 2500

$a=-\frac{1}{100}$

$y=-\frac{1}{100}(x-50)^2+25$

the height of the arch 10 feet from the center.

center is at 50, 10 feet from the center so x=40 and x=60

$y=-\frac{1}{100}(40-50)^2+25$

y=24

the height of the arch 10 feet from the center is 24 feet
