The volume of the area is Length x width x height:

25 x 35 x 2/12 = 145.83 cubic feet.

1 cubic foot = 0.037 cubic yards:

145.83 x 0.037 = 5.40 cubic yards.

5.4 cubic yards x 1050 lbs/ cubic yard = 5,665.6 pounds.

Note:

Rounding and conversion may change the answer slightly, but I believe I rounded everything as it should be.

4 pencils and 3 crayons are 20.9 inches. 5 pencils and 4 crayons are 26.5 inches. Each pencil is the same length as the other pe
erastova [34]

Answer:

The length of the pencils is 4.1 inches and for the crayons 1.5 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

We can solve by means of a 2x2 system of equations, we have to:

let "x" be the length of the pencils

let "y" be the length of the crayons

4 * x + 3 * y = 20.9

5 * x + 4 * y = 26.5 => x = (26.5 - 4 * y) / 5

Replacing:

4 * (26.5 - 4 * y) / 5 + 3 * y = 20.9

21.2 - 3.2 * y + 3 * y = 20.9

-0.2 * y = 20.9 - 21.2

y = -0.3 / -0.2

y = 1.5

now for x:

x = (26.5 - 4 * 1.5) / 5

x = 4.1

This means that the length of the pencils is 4.1 inches and for the crayons 1.5 inches

One estimate of the population of the world on January 1, 2005, is
inn [45]

Answer:

8,566,379,470 people

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's start simple.  In order to find the population increase on January 1, 2006, we need to multiply 6,486,915,022 by 1.4% and add it to 6,486,915,022.

  1. 6,486,915,022*1.4% = 90,816,810.308
  2. 90,816,810.308+6,486,915,022 = 6,577,731,832.31 people on January 2006.

Note that the above two steps gives the same answer as 6,486,915,022*1.014.

So we need to do this for each year.  20 years pass between 1/1/2005 and 1/1/2025.  

We need to do 6,486,915,022*1.014*1.014*1.014... 20 times.

This is equivalent to 6,486,915,022*1.014^{20}.

Multiplying it out gives us 8566379470.2 = 8,566,379,470 people.

Tracy McKinney is a disc jockey at radio station WMMM. Her annual salary is $52,750. What is her monthly salary?
attashe74 [19]
Okay, so since her annual salary is <span>$52,750 (the amount she gets a year, all twelve months combined) you're trying to find how much she gets monthly. That would mean we would have to divide her annual salary by 12 to find her monthly salary.

</span>$52,750 ÷ 12 = 4,395.8333333333333
<span>
And since that's a (bothersome) repeating decimal, we're going to have to round it. Once rounded, you would get $</span>4,395.83. That is her monthly salary.
