Part A:
First, we will need to compute the area of the lawn.
We are given that the lawn is a rectangular plot with dimensions 60 ft and 90 ft.
Area of rectangle = length * width
Area of lawn = 60 * 90 = 5400 ft^2
Now, we will compute the number of ounces.
We are given that:
<span>Each ounce of grass seed will cover 120 square feet. Therefore, to know the number of ounces needed to cover 5400 square feet, all we have to do is cross multiplication as follows:
1 ounce ---------> 120 square feet
?? ounce --------> 5400 square feet
Number of ounces needed = (5400*1) / (120) = 45 ounces

Part B:
We know that one ounce is equivalent to 0.0625 pounds.
For the lawn, we need 45 ounces, this means that:
number of pounds needed for the lawn = (45*0.0625) / (1) = 2.8125 pounds
which is approximately 3 pounds.
We know that each bag weighs one pound, therefore:
number of bags needed = 3 bags

Hope this helps :)

Area = 60×90= 5400ft

A) Since 1 grass seed covered 120 ft of land.
5400÷120=45

Quadratics easy question. Please help
andre [41]

Answer:

1.62 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

h = -16t² + 24t + 16.4

The initial height is 16.4 feet.  The snowboarder lands 3.2 feet below this, or at a height of 13.2 feet.

13.2 = -16t² + 24t + 16.4

16t² − 24t − 3.2 = 0

Solve with quadratic formula:

t = [ -(-24) ± √((-24)² − 4(16)(-3.2)) ] / 2(16)

t = [ 24 ± √(576 + 204.8) ] / 32

t = 1.62

The snowboarder is in the air for 1.62 seconds.
