4/10 is 2/5 or 0.4 in decimal form.
If Nick starts with 20, we can just plug it into p/2 - 12 to get 10-12 or -2. This means Nick did not get 20 cards. Now we have answered both. Two-liner!
Answer:
199
Step-by-step explanation:
Find the volume of the rectangular prism.
V = lwh
V = (9)(16)(4)
V = 756 ft^3
Convert to cubic yards:
1 ft^3 = 0.037037037 yd^3
756 * 0.037037037 = 28
So there are 28 cubic yards of dirt he needs.
Multiply this to 25 to find the total cost of the dirt:
28 * 25 = 700
So the project will cost $700
Set the equations equal to each other
Subtract x from both sides
Divide both sides by -4
x=-1/2
