How many cubic feet are in 3 cubic yards?

1 answer:

4 0

For every cubic yard, it equals to 27 cubic feet.

So, could have this fraction $\frac{27 feet^3}{1 yards^3}$
And we want to convert 3 cubic yards into cubic feet.

We can express 3 cubic yards as $\frac{3 yards^3}{1}$

Now multiply the $\frac{3 yards^3}{1}$ fraction by the second fraction or the reciprocal of the second fraction to cancel out the yards^3 units.

$\frac{3 yards^3}{1} * \frac{27 feet^3}{1 yards^2} = \frac{81 feet^3}{1}$

So, 3 cubic yards to equal to 81 cubic feet.

Answer:

The correct answer is A. 60 square feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Let's review the data provided to us for solving the question:

The gazebo in Mr. Chang's backyard, according to the figure, is a square pyramid because its base is a square of 6 feet as length of its sides.

Length of the sides of the base = 6 feet

Slant length = 5 feet

Height = 4 feet

2. How much cloth, in square feet, will Mr. Chang need, assuming he does not need to replace the cloth at the bottom of the figure?

Area of a square pyramid = Base area + 1/2 Perimeter * Slant length

Replacing with the real values, we have:

Area of a square pyramid = 6 * 6 + 1/2 (6 + 6 + 6 + 6) * 5

Area of a square pyramid = 36 + 1/2 (24) * 5

Area of a square pyramid = 36 + 12 * 5

Area of a square pyramid = 36 + 60

Area of a square pyramid = 96 feet ²

3. But remember than Mr. Chang doesn't need to replace the cloth at the bottom of the gazebo.

So we need to subtract the area of the base to the area of the square pyramid:

Area of the square pyramid - area of the base

Area of the base = 6 * 6 = 36 feet ²

96 feet ² - 36 feet ² = 60 feet ²

The correct answer is A. 60 square feet.

RoseWind [281]

A.
If:
j - the price of a glass of juice
p - the price of a pancake special
Then:
3j + 5p = 7.60
j + 2p = 2.90

b.
If:
j + 2p = 2.90
Then:
j = 2.90 - 2p
We can substite j in the first equation.
If:
3j + 5p = 7.60
j = 2.90 - 2p
Then:
3×(2.90-2p) + 5p = 7.60
8.70 - 6p + 5p = 7.60
8.70 - p = 7.60
⇒ p = 8.70 - 7.60
⇒ p = 1.10

If:
j = 2.90 - 2p
p = 1.10
Then:
j = 2.90 - 2×1.10
j = 2.90 - 2.20
j = 0.70

Thus, the price of a glass of juice is $0.70 and the price of a pancake special is $1.10.

c.
If:
p = 1.10
j = 0.70
Then:
j + p = 1.10 + 0.70 = 1.80

Thus, the bill for 1 glass of orange juice and 1 pancake special is $1.80.

If you have 80 employees and you grew 116%, what was the amount of original employees?

Nezavi [6.7K]

Answer: 69

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the original employee be x , this means that

116% of x = 80

$\frac{116x}{100}$ = 80

116x = 8000

divide through by 116

x = 8000/116

x = 68.96551724

Since we are dealing with employees , therefore x ≈ 69

This means that there were 69 employees originally
