Answer:

B) 18 bags

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly,we need to find the area of only the vegetable garden.

Area of a rectangular garden is given by :

Area=Length \times Width

From the picture, it can be inferred that,

the dimension of the vegetable garden is:

24 by 9

This implies that,

Length=24 feet

Width=9 feet

Substituting this into the formula, we obtain

Area=24\times9

Area=216square\:feet

it is stated in the question that each bag of special fertilizer bag covers 12 square feet.

using ratio,

1 bag:12square feet

x bag:216squaure feet

This implies,

\frac{1}{12}= \frac{x}{216}

By cross multiplying , we obtain

12x = 216

Divide both sides by 12

x=18

Hence, it will take18 bags of the special fertilizer to

cover the vegetable garden.

Answer:

B. 18 bags

Step-by-step explanation:

First you need to determine the area of the vegetable garden. The vegetable garden is a rectangle with the following dimensions:

L = 24 ft

W = 9 ft

The Formula for the area of a rectangle is:

A = L\times W

So let's solve it:

A = L\timesW\\A = 24 ft\times9ft\\A= 216ft^{2}

With that, we can figure out how many bags of fertilizer would be needed by dividing the area of the vegetable garden by how much one bag of fertilizer covers:

\dfrac{214ft^2}{12ft^2/bag}=18\;bags

Find the equation of a line perpendicular to y - 3x = – 8 that passes through the point
kenny6666 [7]
Y - 3x = -8
y = 3x - 8...slope here is 3. A perpendicular line will have a negative reciprocal slope. All that means is " flip " the slope and change the sign. So the slope we need is -1/3.

y = mx + b
slope(m) = -1/3
(3,2)...x = 3 and y = 2
now we sub and find b, the y int
2 = -1/3(3) + b
2 = -1 + b
2 + 1 = b
3 = b

so ur perpendicular equation is : y = -1/3x + 3

Football teams toss a coin to see who will get their choice of kicking or receiving to begin a game. the probability that given
Artist 52 [7]

In a toss coin, the only result is a head or a tails. Therefore that ½ of the time you can win or ½ of the time you can lose. Therefore the probability of losing three games in a row is:

<span>P = (1/2) * (1/2) * (1/2)
P = 0.125</span>

<span>Therefore the answer is “True”.</span>

Solve for x.<br> A) -7<br> C) 6<br> B) 9<br> D) 10
Mekhanik [1.2K]

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

The segment BC  joining the midpoints of 2 sides of the triangle is

Half the length of the third side, that is

x + 31 = 2(x + 19)

x + 31 = 2x + 38 ( subtract x from both sides )

31 = x + 38 ( subtract 38 from both sides )

- 7 = x → A

I need help on this 2 problems please help​
Digiron [165]

Answer:

3. 294 m²

4. 185,856 mm²

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the surface area of any figure, you can simply find the sum of the areas of all the sides.  In question 3, the figure is a triangular prism that has two triangular bases and three rectangular sides.  The measurements for the triangles are b = 9m and h = 6m.  The formula for the area of a triangle is base times height divided by 2, or 9 x 6 = 54/2 = 27 m². However, since there are two triangular bases, the area for both is 54 m².  The measurements for the other three rectangles are given:

7(10) + 8(10) + 9(10) = 240 m² + 54 m² = 294 m²

The surface area of a cube is much easier since all sides are equal and can be found using the formula:

SA = 6s², where 's' represents the measure of a side.

SA = 6(176)² = 185,856 mm²
