Answer:
4 bottles
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
Required
Determine the number of bottles
Represent the number of bottles with N
<em>This implies that N bottles of </em>
<em> fit into </em>
<em> of fertilizer. The relationship between them is:</em>
<em></em>
Multiply through by 8
<em>Hence, there are N = 4</em>
Answer:
<u>The correct answer is 58 1/2 feet. See below to understand the difference of both methods.</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Let's review the information provided to us for solving the question using both methods:
Area of each student = 4 1/2 square feet
Number of students = 13
2. Let's use the first method to solve the question:
4 1/2 = 9/2 (Improper fraction because the numerator, 9 is bigger than the denominator, 2)
9/2 * 13 = 117/2
<u>117/2 = 58 1/2 square feet</u>
3. Let's use the second method to solve the question:
4 1/2 = 4 + 1/2 (Using addition to rewrite the fraction)
(4 + 1/2) * 13 = (4 * 13) + (1/2 * 13) (Distributive property of the multiplication)
(4 * 13) + (1/2 * 13) = 52 + 13/2 = 52 + 6 1/2
<u>52 + 6 1/2 = 58 1/2 square feet</u>
Given:
Triangle:
height = 6ft
base = 4ft
Rectangle:
length = x
Width = 6 ft
Surface Area = 150ft²
Area of a Triangle = h*b / 2 = (6ft * 4ft) / 2 = 12ft²
Area of a rectangle = Surface Area - Area of a Triangle
A = 150 ft² - 12 ft² = 138 ft²
138 ft² = x * 6ft
138 ft² / 6 ft = x
23 ft = x.
Simplify:
7x+3=7x-3
Now 7x goes away and you get 3=-3, which cannot be true, so there is no solution
