Answer: He will need to use 25.2 pounds on his lawn.

Step-by-step explanation: If Jean-Patrick found a bag that contains 36 pounds worth of fertilizer and it can cover 10000 square feet of earth, then he needs to find out how many square feet of earth can be covered by just one pound of fertilizer.

After that, he can multiply that portion by 7000 feet to determine how many pounds in total he would need for his lawn.

To cover one square foot of earth, he would need;

1 ft = 36/10000

1 ft = 0.0036

That means for each square foot of earth, he would need 0.0036 pound of fertilizer. In order to fertilize 7000 square feet of earth, he would need the following

Total = 0.0036 x 7000

Total = 25.2

Jean-Patrick would need 25.2 pounds of fertilizer for his lawn

Answer:

He needs to use 25.2 pounds to fertilize his lawn.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to solve this problem we can use a rule of three in such a way that the content of the bag (36 pounds) can cover 10,000 ft² in the same proportion as "x" pounds can cover 7,000 ft², where "x" is the amount of fertilizer he needs to use.

36 pounds -> 10,000 ft²

x pounds -> 7,000 ft²

36/x = 10000/7000

10000*x = 36*7000

x = 36*7000/10000

x = 25.2 pounds

He needs to use 25.2 pounds to fertilize his lawn.

Can you draw an isosceles triangle with only one 80 degree angle?
aev [14]

Answer:

The triangle is 50,50 80

Step-by-step explanation:

The three angles of a triangle equal 180 degrees

We only want one 80 degree angle.  That means the other two angles have to be the same, since it is an isosceles triangle.  Call the other angle x

x+x+80 = 180

2x+80 =180

Subtract 80 from each side

2x+80-80=180-80

2x =100

Divide by 2

2x/2=100/2

x = 50

Each of the other angles in the triangle would have to equal 50 degrees

The triangle is 50,50 80

It was reported that in​ 2004, the mean net worth of families in a certain region was ​$470.2 thousand and the median net worth
Kobotan [32]

Answer:

Median.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that in​ 2004, the mean net worth of families in a certain region was ​$470.2 thousand and the median net worth was ​$92.3 thousand.

We know that mean and median of a symmetric data set is equal.

We also know that when mean of a data set is greater than median, then the data set has a very large valued outlier.

Since mean net wroth of families is approximately 5 times more than median net wroth of families, this means that some of the families has very high net worth as outliers.

Since the net worth of families has very large outliers, therefore, I would prefer median as the appropriate measure of center as median is not affected by outliers.

Solve the system of equations by substitution.
sineoko [7]
Answer is A. -2x + 3z
Reason
2x + y = 3z
If you subtract 2x from both sides to isolate “y”
2x -2x +y = -2x + 3z
Now combine like terms
You get
y= -2x + 3z
