Answer:

The width of the yard is approximately 6 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

1 cubic yard = 27 cubic feet. Then we must find the number of cubic yards.

So we know for 1 cubic yard = $98

And for "x" cubic yard = $58.07

1/x =98/58.07

x = 0.5925

After we figure this out we need to convert this into 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

So,

width x height x length = 16 cubic feet

w x 8 x (1/3) = 16

w = 48/8 = 6 feet

So:

The answer is:

The width of the yard is approximately 6 feet.

Hope this helps, have a good day. c;

Find the slope of (1,8) and (3,12) ?
Marta_Voda [28]

Answer:

The slope is 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope formula is rise/run. So in other words, it is y2-y1/x2-x1. In this case it would be 12-8/3-1. That equals 4/2. You need to simplify that by dividing both 4 and 2 by 2. So, that gives you 2/1. Whenever you have a number over 1 that is the same as saying just the numerator. So the slope would be 2.

Using the discriminant, describe the nature of the roots for the equation <br> 49x^2 − 28x + 4 = 0.
scZoUnD [109]

Answer:

Put the equation in standard form by bringing the 4x + 1 to the left side.

7x2 - 4x - 1 = 0

We use the discriminant to determine the nature of the roots of a quadratic equation. The discriminant is the expression underneath the radical in the quadratic formula: b2 - 4ac.

b2 - 4ac In this case, a = 7, b = -4, and c = -1

(-4)2 - 4(7)(-1)

16 + 28 = 44

Now here are the rules for determining the nature of the roots:

(1) If the discriminant = 0, then there is one real root (this omits the ± from the quadratic formula, leaving only one possible solution)

(2) If the discriminant > 0, then there are two real roots (this keeps the ±, giving you two solutions)

(3) If the discriminant < 0, then there are two imaginary roots (this means there is a negative under the radical, making the solutions imaginary)

44 > 0, so there are two real roots
