First find the area of the front lawn:
Area = length * width
Area = 24.0ft * 20.0ft
Area = 480ft^2

Next, find the weight in kilograms of the snow per square foot per hour per ft^2:
weight\ per\ ft^{2}=\frac{1050\ snowflakes}{minute}\\\\weight\ per\ ft^{2}=\frac{1050\ snowflakes}{minute}*\frac{1.70\ milligrams}{snowflake}*\frac{1\gram}{1000\milligrams}*\frac{1\kilogram}{1000\grams}* \frac{60\minutes}{1\hour}\\\\weight\ per\ ft^{2}=\frac{1050*1.70}{1000*1000*60}*\frac{kg}{hour}=2.975*10^{-5}\ \frac{kg}{hour}\\\\weight=2.975*10^{-5}\ \frac{kg}{hour*ft^{2}}

Now multiply the area of the lawn by the weight of the snow per hour per ft^2:
weight\ of\ snow=lawn\ area*weight\ per\ hour\ per ft^{2}\\\\weight=480\ ft^{2}*2.975*10^{-5}\ \frac{kg}{hour*ft^{2}}\\\\weight=0.01428\ \frac{kg}{hour}



Thus your answer is .01428 kg.

Factor -1/4 out of -1/2-5/4y
In-s [12.5K]
When we factor out something, we divide the factor by the equation. For example if we were to factor 3 out of 6, It will be 3(2). We got this answer by dividing 3 and 6. Using this concept:

\frac{-1}{4}[( \frac{-1}{2} / \frac{-1}{4}) - ( \frac{5}{4} y /  \frac{-1}{4})]

Simplifying:

\frac{-1}{4}(2 + 5y)

Hope this helps!
