Convert first the cost of $98 /yd³ by the conversion factor that 1 yd³ = 27 ft³.
                           ($98 /yd³) (1 yd³ / 27 ft³) = $ 3 17/27/ft³
Let x be the width, the volume of the rectangular portion of the driveway is,
                           V = (8 ft) (1/3 ft) x = 8x/3 ft³
Using the given total cost of the protion,
                                  C = $58.07 = (8x/3 ft³)(<span>$ 3 17/27/ft³) 
x = 5.99957 ft
Thus, the answer is d. 6 feet.</span>

1 cubic yard = 27 cubit feet

then we must find the no.of cubic yards

for 1 cubic yard = $98
for "x" cubic yard = $58.07

1/x =98/58.07
x = 0.5925

Now we have to convert this in to cubic feet...
1 cubic yard = 27 cubic feet
0.5925 cubic yard = x cubic feet

1/0.5925= 27/x
x = 15 .99 cubic feet

now

width x height x length = 16 cubic feet
w x 8 x (1/3) = 16
w = 48/8 = 6 feet

yep! there for the width of the yard is approximately 6 feet.. <span>

How do you factor the expression<br> 20k+50
Aliun [14]
Answer is 10(2k+5)

-----------------------------------

Work Shown:

20k+50 = 10*2k + 10*5
20k+50 = 10(2k+5)

Note how we can distribute the 10 back in to check our work
10(2k+5) = 10(2k)+10(5) = 20k+50
so that confirms we have the right answer

Another thing to notice is that 10 is the largest factor that we can pull out of 20k and 50. The value 10 is the GCF (greatest common factor) of 20 and 50.

For a certain​ drug, the rate of reaction in appropriate units is given by Upper R prime (t )equalsStartFraction 2 Over t plus 1
Tems11 [23]

Answer:

a) 8.13

b) 4.10

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the rate of reaction R'(t) = 2/t+1 + 1/√t+1

In order to get the total reaction R(t) to the drugs at this times, we need to first integrate the given function to get R(t)

On integrating R'(t)

∫ (2/t+1 + 1/√t+1)dt

In integration, k∫f'(x)/f(x) dx = 1/k ln(fx)+C where k is any constant.

∫ (2/t+1 + 1/√t+1)dt

= ∫ (2/t+1)dt+ ∫ (1/√t+1)dt

= 2∫ 1/t+1 dt +∫1/+(t+1)^1/2 dt

= 2ln(t+1) + 2(t+1)^1/2 + C

= 2ln(t+1) + 2√(t+1) + C

a) For total reactions from t = 1 to t = 12

When t = 1

R(1) = 2ln2 + 2√2

≈ 4.21

When t = 12

R(12) = 2ln13 + 2√13

≈ 12.34

R(12) - R(1) ≈ 12.34-4.21

≈ 8.13

Total reactions to the drugs over the period from t = 1 to t= 12 is approx 8.13.

b) For total reactions from t = 12 to t = 24

When t = 12

R(12) = 2ln13 + 2√13

≈ 12.34

When t = 24

R(24) = 2ln25 + 2√25

≈ 16.44

R(12) - R(1) ≈ 16.44-12.34

≈ 4.10

Total reactions to the drugs over the period from t = 12 to t= 24 is approx 4.10
