Paul is spreading grass seed on an area of his lawn that is 9 feet wide and 10 feet long. A bag of grass seed covers 15 square f
aksik [14]
Area of the field should be 9*10 = 90 square feet.
a bag of grass seeds cover 15 square feet.
so if you need to know how many bags should be used, then,
Total area of field/ area covered by 1 bag of grass seeds.
= 90/15 = 6 bags
he needs to use 6 bags of grass seeds to cover the whole field.
I don't think there are any 'hidden' questions, though you can consider the 2nd part of the question I guess. (how many bags of seed will Paul...)

3p + 2q = 14<br> 10p + 6q = 44<br> What is p and what is q
Airida [17]

Answer:

p = 2 ; q = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given tbe equation :

3p + 2q = 14 - - - (1)

10p + 6q = 44 - - -(2)

What is p and what is q

This is a simultaneous equation ; using elimination method :

Multiply (1) by 6 and (2) by 2

18p + 12q = 84 - - - - (3)

20p + 12q = 88 - - - (4)

Subtract (3) and (4)

-2p = - 4

p = 4/2

p = 2

Put p = 2 in (1)

3p + 2q = 14

3(2) + 2q = 14

6 + 2q = 14

2q = 14 - 6

2q = 8

q = 8/2

q = 4

p = 2 ; q = 4

An athlete knows that when she jogs along her neighborhood​ greenway, she can complete the route in 10 minutes. It takes 20 minu
IgorLugansk [536]

Answer:

10 miles per hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent athlete's walking speed.

We have been given that her jogging rate is 5 mph faster than her walking​ rate, so athlete's jogging speed would be x+5 miles per hour.

\text{Distance}=\text{Rate}\cdot \text{Time}

10 minutes = 1/6 hour.

20 minutes = 1/3 hour

While walking, we will get D_{\text{walking}}=x\frac{\text{miles}}{\text{hour}}\cdot \frac{1}{3}\text{hour}

D_{\text{walking}}=\frac{x}{3}

While jogging, we will get D_{\text{jogging}}=(x+5)\frac{\text{miles}}{\text{hour}}\cdot \frac{1}{6}\text{hour}

D_{\text{jogging}}= \frac{(x+5)}{6}

Since athlete is covering same distance while walking and jogging, so we can equate both expressions as:

\frac{x}{3}=\frac{x+5}{6}

Cross multiply:

6x=3x+15

6x-3x=15

3x=15

\frac{3x}{3}=\frac{15}{3}\\\\x=5

Therefore, athlete's walking speed is 5 miles per hour.

Jogging speed: x+5\Rightarrow 5+5=10

Therefore, athlete's jogging speed is 10 miles per hour.

A brand new filled jar of salsa is 11 cm tall and a has a radius of 6 cm. Kelly eats some of the salsa and the salsa in the jar
Sonbull [250]

Before we begin please note that a jar is always cylindrical in shape if not mentioned otherwise. Thus, we will take a cylindrical jar in this case.

Since Kelly eats some of the salsa and the salsa in the jar is now 6 cm high, we know that Kelly ate the amount of Salsa whose volume is missing from the jar.

To find the missing volume on the Salsa jar all that we need to do is to find the height of the missing volume which is given to us as h= 6 cm. We already know that the radius of the jar, r=6 cm. Thus, the amount of Salsa Kelly has eaten is:

V=\pi(6)^2\times 6\approx678.6\approx679 cm^3

Thus, the third option is the correct answer
