A path is 3 feet wide and is paved Weight square brakes that are 3 inches wide. How many bricks wide is the path

1 answer:

4 0

The area of the path is can be solved using the equation below:
Area path = wide²
First, let us convert 3 feet to inches such as shown below:
3 feet * (12 inches / 1 foot) = 36 inches
Area of the path = 36²
Area of the path = 1296 inches²

Solving for the area of the square bricks
Area of the bricks = (3 inches)²
Area of the brick = 9 inches²

Solving for the number of bricks, we have it:
Total number of bricks = Area of the path/area of the bricks
Total number of bricks = 1296 / 9
Total number of bricks = 144 pieces

The answer is 144 total number of bricks.

A family has two cars. The first car has a fuel efficiency of 35 miles per gallon of gas and the second has a fuel efficiency of

cestrela7 [59]

The amount of gas consumed by first and second car were 20 gallons and 15 gallons respectively.

Explanation

Suppose, $x$ gallons of gas were consumed by the first car.

As the total gas consumption in one week is 35 gallons, so the amount of gas consumed by second car will be: $(35-x)$ gallons.

The first car has a fuel efficiency of 35 miles per gallon of gas and the second has a fuel efficiency of 15 miles per gallon of gas.

So, the distance traveled by the first car in $x$ gallons of gas $=35x$ miles and the distance traveled by the second car in $(35-x)$ gallons of gas $=15(35-x)$ miles.
