Answer:
D. He should add between 2 cups and 3 cups of dirt.
Step-by-step explanation:
First we need to take the ratio of dirt to peat moss.
8 parts dirt : 3 parts peat moss.
Now we take the ratio and find the value of dirt.
8 : 3 =
x : 1 =
We now multiply both sides by 1.
So now we substitute x.
2.67 Cups Dirt : 1 Cup Peat Moss

Step-by-step explanation:
The total of legs needed to build the stools are:
Likewise the total length of the legs is:
Lastly, the quantity of rods that needed to buy is:
(a^3b)^2 • 4ab^3
a^6b • 4ab^3
4a^6b+1b^3
X=5
90°-50°=40°
5x+15=40°
5x=25°
x=5
The pattern is adding 8 to the previous number.
ex. 7+8=15, 15+8=23, 23+8=31, 31+8=39
Now for the next 2 terms:
39+8=47
47+8=55
Hope this helps!
