This is the concept of applications of volume. We are required to calculate BTUs per cubic foot. This will be given by the formula:
(BTU)/volume
Total BTU=15*750=11,250
(assuming the bus is a perfect cuboid) volume of the bus will be;
volume=length*width*height
=38*8.5*6.25
=2018.75 ft^2
Thus the BTUs per foot will be:
11250/2018.75
5.57 BTUs/ft

one moving company charges $800 plus $16 per hour another moving company charges $720 plus $21 an hour at what number of hours w
Gekata [30.6K]

800 + 16x = 720 + 21x. Cancel out the 720 to get 80 + 16x = 21x. Subtract 16x from both sides to get 80 = 5x. Divide by 5 to get 16 = x, or x = 16. 16 hours. The charge is 800 + 16(16), = 720 + 21(16) which = 800 + 256 = 720 + 336 which = 1,056 = 1,056. Hope this helped!
