Answer:
2 bags of topsoil.
Step-by-step explanation:
The attached figure shows a flower bed.
One bag of topsoil covers 15 square meters.
We need to find how many bags of topsoil does Tom need to cover his flower bed.
The area of the flower bed is :
Let he has to cover x bags of topsoil. So,
x = Area of flower bed/Area of 1 bag of top soil
x = 30/15
x = 2
Hence, he will need 2 bags of topsoil to cover his flower bed.
To find surface area, we can use the equation:
SA=2lw+2wh+2lh, where:
l=10 in
w=3 in
h=7 in
SA=(2)(10)(3)+(2)(3)(7)+(2)(10)(7)
SA=60+42+140
SA=242 in²
Answer:
You will have 128 orange marbles
Step-by-step explanation:
Set this up as an equation
Variable x = number of orange marbles
3/8 = 48/x
Cross multiply
3 × x = 8 × 48
3x = 384
Divide both sides by 3 to isolate the variable
3x ÷ 3 = 384 ÷ 3
1x = 128
x = 128
128 orange marbles
Check work:
Substitute the variable x for the answer
3/8 = 48/128
Cross multiply
3 × 128 = 8 × 48
384 = 384
If the numbers equal, the answer is correct
Answer:
11
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that in a sample of n=6, five individuals all have scores of X=10 and the sixth person has a score of x=16
i.e. the data entries are
10,10,10,10,10,16
Sum = 66
No of items n = 6
Average = sum/no of entries
=
Average is 11.
mean of this sample is 11
28 to 42 means 28/42
We now reduce 28/42 to lowest terms.
28 ÷ 7 = 4
42 ÷ 7 = 6
We now have 4/6.
We now reduce 4/6.
4 ÷ 2 = 2
6 ÷ 2 = 3
Final answer: 2/3
