Answer:

20 pounds of grass seed is needed for one acre.

Step-by-step explanation:

You can set up a proportion to solve:

\frac{2.5 pounds}{1/8 acre} = \frac{x pounds}{1 acre}

Cross multiply:

\frac{1}{8}x = 2.5

Divide both sides by \frac{1}{8} or multiply both sides by 8.

x = 20

8-2|4-5y|=4<br><br> | | stands for absolute value
Contact [7]

Answer:

y = (2/5) OR y = (6/5)

Step-by-step explanation:

The first step is isolating the expression within the absolute value bars. The first thing we can do is subtract both sides by 8. If we do that, we get -2|4-5y| = -4. Now, to completely isolate the absolute value, we would have to divide by -2. This yields |4 - 5y| = 2. Finally, we can remove the absolute value bars. However, to do this, we need to first understand what an absolute value bar does to an equation. Lets say that |x| = 2. Absolute value describes the DISTANCE of some quantity from 0 (on the number line). Therefore, x (which is inside the absolute value bars) can be either positive or negative 2 (they are BOTH two units away from 0). Similarly, in this case, (4 - 5y) can either be 2 or -2 (because the absolute value of both is 2). Now we have two possible solutions to solve for:

4 - 5y = 2 OR 4 - 5y = -2

5y = 2 OR 5y = 6

y = (2/5) OR y = (6/5)

If we plug both of these answers back into the equation we can see that they both check out.

Renting a car costs $35.50 per day, plus 40¢ per mile. If a customer paid $131 for a 2-day rental, how many miles was the car dr
qwelly [4]

Subtract the fee from the total:

131- 35.50 = 95.50

Now divide that by the price per mile:

95.50/ 0.40 = 238.75

They drove 238.74 miles
