Answer:

c) 300.9 ft²

Step-by-step explanation:

He has 4 1/4 bags of mulch in his shed to use. Each bag of mulch will cover 70.8 ft².

Hence:

1 bag of mulch = 70.8ft²

4 1/4 bags of mulch = x ft²

Cross Multiply

1 bag × x ft² = 4 1/4 × 70.8

x ft² = 4 1/4 × 70.8/1

x = 300.9 ft²

Option c is correct.

Gnesinka [82]

Answer:

x<6/5, x>14/5

Step-by-step explanation:

Steps

$5\left|x-2\right|+4>8$

$\mathrm{Subtract\:}4\mathrm{\:from\:both\:sides}$

$5\left|x-2\right|+4-4>8-4$

$\mathrm{Simplify}$

$5\left|x-2\right|>4$

$\mathrm{Divide\:both\:sides\:by\:}5$

$\frac{5\left|x-2\right|}{5}>\frac{4}{5}$

$\mathrm{Simplify}$

$\left|x-2\right|>\frac{4}{5}$

$\mathrm{Apply\:absolute\:rule}:\quad\mathrm{If}\:|u|\:>\:a,\:a>0\:\mathrm{then}\:u\:<\:-a\:\quad\mathrm{or}\quad\:u\:>\:a$

$x-2<-\frac{4}{5}\quad\mathrm{or}\quad\:x-2>\frac{4}{5}$

Show Steps

$x-2<-\frac{4}{5}\quad:\quad x<\frac{6}{5}$

Show Steps

$x-2>\frac{4}{5}\quad:\quad x>\frac{14}{5}$

$\mathrm{Combine\:the\:intervals}$

$x<\frac{6}{5}\quad\mathrm{or}\quad\:x>\frac{14}{5}$

X = the number of months the tire was used
y = the thickness of the tire tread

y = -(3/7)x + 20

Substitute x for 20 (the number of months the tire was used) and solve for y.

The next question: Substitute x for 49 (the number of months the tire was used) and solve for y.

Factor 64 - P.<br> (8 - x(8 - x)<br> (8 + x (8 - x)<br> (X + 8)(x-8)
muminat

Question:

Factor 64-x^2

(8 - x)(8 - x)

(8 + x) (8 - x)

(X + 8)(x-8)

Answer:

Option B: (8+x)(8-x) is the factor

Explanation:

Given that the expression is 64-x^2

We need to find the factor of the given expression.

Let us rewrite the expression as 8^2-x^{2}

Since the expression is of the form a^2-b^2, let us use the identity a^2-b^2=(a+b)(a-b)

where a = 8 and b = x

Substituting the values in the identity, then the expression can be written as

8^2-x^{2}=(8+x)(8-x)

Thus, the factor of the expression is (8+x)(8-x)

Hence, Option B is the correct answer.
